The Federal Rebuplic of Antaty is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Anthony Johnson with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.749 billion Antatyans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Antaport. The average income tax rate is 88.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Antatyan economy, worth a remarkable 1,050 trillion Antatyan Aeuros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 155,641 Antatyan Aeuros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Making up random numbers to name new asteroids is the bulk of astronomers' work, people are now buried six inches under, prosecutors are tucked into bed by the household police officer, and the government is on the side of working people (like CEOs, bankers and billionaires). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Antaty's national animal is the Antatyan-Squid, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Anthanism.

Antaty is ranked 10,213^th in the world and 114^th in 10000 Islands for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 421.17 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
