The Democratic Republic of Andersa is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, restrictive gun laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, devout population of 1.706 billion Andersans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.9%.

The very strong Andersan economy, worth 112 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 66,147 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 201,378 per year while the poor average 16,866, a ratio of 11.9 to 1.

Organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, military spending recently hit a new high, expectant parents view twins with equal parts joy and suspicion, and TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Andersa's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Andersa is ranked 124,030^th in the world and 11^th in Geopolity for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,659.55 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
