The Santa's Silver Valkyries of Anno2 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Mel with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, triple-decker prams, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 27.759 billion Luckies are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Undeclared. The average income tax rate is 65.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Anno2ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,482 trillion gold bars 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 a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. 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 89,426 gold bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cinemas play art-house movies to ever-shrinking audiences as film critics rule the industry, government-sanctioned speed mating is rife with Party-sanctioned abuse of power, conversion therapy coupons are a popular present for coming of age ceremonies, and optometrists will see citizens in seconds but health inspectors won't be sighted for years. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anno2's national animal is the space slug, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Whichever is dominant.

Anno2 is ranked 275,550^th in the world and 1^st in Empires of the stars for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 25.67 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
