The Republic of Anli is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its teetotalling pirates, digital currency, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.881 billion Anlians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 78.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Anlian economy, worth 295 trillion pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 102,542 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader can cry on demand, frisbee games on college quadrangles are grounds for expulsion, mystics are claiming that a simultaneous rise in scepticism and education budgets is correlation rather than causation, and pro-wrestling bouts open with a legal disclaimer insisting that any violence is guaranteed 100% faked. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anli's national animal is the giraffe, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Anli is ranked 10,455^th in the world and 168^th in the West Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 5,340.71 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
