The Federation of Amgus is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Amogus Astronaut with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.55 billion Crewmates have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Skeld. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The very strong Not Sus economy, worth 139 trillion Vbucks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 90,303 Vbucks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 285,865 per year while the poor average 21,764, a ratio of 13.1 to 1.

Social care for the elderly consists of a self help leaflet and a kick on the backside, news headlines suggest that Amogus Astronaut has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, vacationing Crewmates expect to be treated as royalty, and children's books regularly feature formerly distressed damsels suing their princes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amgus's national animal is the Riolu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Amogus.

Amgus is ranked 111,174^th in the world and 17^th in Aura for Lowest Crime Rates, with 64.56 law-abiding acts per hour.
