The People's Federation of Antara is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Sarrith Ilirora with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.907 billion Antarans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Scarlette Bay. The average income tax rate is 53.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Antaran economy, worth 736 trillion Continental Pounds a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,660 Continental Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history, criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, new legislators take a week-long class entitled "Keeping Your Job: How to Avoid Offending Sarrith Ilirora", and police officers often conceal their identities to safeguard against public complaints. Crime is totally unknown. Antara's national animal is the Red-Backed Auger Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is None.

Antara is ranked 21,333^rd in the world and 25^th in Anteria for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 7,592.79 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
