The Federal Republic of Antigona is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 267 million Antigonans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sterre. The average income tax rate is 51.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Antigonan economy, worth 18.2 trillion Panoes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 67,982 Panoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Employers are never quite sure if graduates' qualifications have any merit or meaning, the family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year, films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay, and only native-born Antigonans who have never left the nation are permitted to run for office. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Antigona's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Antigona is ranked 56,024^th in the world and 2,462^nd in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,155.07 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
