The Kingdom of Far Andainarics is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Alejandro Paximos with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, triple-decker prams, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.348 billion Far Andainaricsians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ciudad del Andanair. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Far Andainaricsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,497 trillion Reais 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 279,974 Reais, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 941,220 per year while the poor average 61,752, a ratio of 15.2 to 1.

New legislators take a week-long class entitled "Keeping Your Job: How to Avoid Offending Alejandro Paximos", if foreigners can hit a spittoon from five paces they get a free holiday to Far Andainarics, fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, and every microwave and toaster is being disassembled and probed by inspectors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Far Andainarics's national animal is the Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodox Catholicism.

Far Andainarics is ranked 11,541^st in the world and 33^rd in Fifth Empire for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,959.43 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
