The Queen's State of Andrya is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 42.921 billion Andryans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 80.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Andryan economy, worth a remarkable 2,219 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 51,706 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Governor has just been declared ruler of Andrya in an international press conference, soldiers are equipped with multi-million betale battlesuits, sociologists can charge whatever fee they like as the nation tries to find itself, and a government program is underway to revitalize Andrya's beaches. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Andrya's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Andrya is ranked 61,628^th in the world and 1^st in Andrya for Safest, scoring 99.34 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
