The Axolotl Empire of Andrendia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Emperor Andrea Oloto VII with a fair hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.515 billion Andreians 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, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andreopolis. The average income tax rate is 84.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Andreian economy, worth 345 trillion Bricks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 137,438 Bricks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The official Andreian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, and saying 'Hi Guys' to a mixed gender group of people at work is a fireable offense. Crime is totally unknown. Andrendia's national animal is the Axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Azaelism.

Andrendia is ranked 8,626^th in the world and 253^rd in the South Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 118,444.4 Standard Monetary Units.
