The Imperial State of Angvar is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Empress Katharina II with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, strictly enforced bedtime, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.366 billion Angvarians 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mordegard. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Angvarian economy, worth a remarkable 4,032 trillion Angvarian pounds 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, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. 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 an amazing 430,559 Angvarian pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Police nightsticks see use all day long, the nation's new foreign policy of 'very disproportionate retribution' has its neighbors on edge, manhood has become rare in the army, and nobody ever seems to enter or leave the armour-plated flying castle that serves as the seat of government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Angvar's national animal is the carrion crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Miraculism.

Angvar is ranked 333,143rd in the world and 275th in The League for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -23.26 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
