The Republic of New Angus is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by President Ryan White with an even hand, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 5.291 billion New Angusians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dùn Dè. The average income tax rate is 93.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Angusian economy, worth 597 trillion New Angus Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Pizza Delivery. Average income is an impressive 112,966 New Angus Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cosmopolitan citizens ask what their countries can do for them, women who walk into the ladies' changing room are accused of being Peeping Toms, kids are taught in schools to argue with their parents, and cultural heritage is measured in Scoville Heat Units. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Angus's national animal is the Wildcat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Angus is ranked 32,765^th in the world and 50^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 239.08 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
