The Completely Failed State of Angbhand is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Endymion with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, parental licensing program, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 20.02 billion Angbhandians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Industry, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sylvania. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Angbhandian economy, worth an astonishing 16,715 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 834,949 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Singles on the dating scene no longer worry about looking their age, the examiners who examine examiners are being examined by examiners, children crying over dropped ice creams are offered high doses of experimental antidepressants, and public transit is widely considered to be perpetrating the patriarchy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Angbhand's national animal is the worg, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Angbhand is ranked 177,355th in the world and 905th in the Plains of Perdition for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 122.77 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
