The Neo-Colonial Empire of Anglost is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by King William IV with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, hard-working population of 6.472 billion Anglostians 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 Education, Defense, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunrisedon. The average income tax rate is 16.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Anglostian economy, worth 277 trillion Chits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 42,884 Chits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene, tree farms across the nation are overrun by clipboard-wielding biologists, the cloud has been dealt a fouled hand, and artists are renowned for their ability to make art pieces out of thin air. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Anglost's national animal is the Tea, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Sunrisism.

Anglost is ranked 204,450^th in the world and 2,626^th in The East Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 13.05 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
