The Republic of Anthropic PBC is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its avant-garde cinema, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 698 million Anthropic PBCians 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, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 15.9%.

The very strong Anthropic PBCian economy, worth 48.2 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,103 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

Children are terrified that the 'flying police monster' will come to take them away in the night, a video of Leader wearing shock-blue face paint and smashing an electric guitar in front of a frenzied crowd is on endless repeat on the nightly news, arbitration is mightier than the sword, and prankster scientists legally change their names to silly pseudonyms before major discoveries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anthropic PBC's national animal is the shares.

Anthropic PBC is ranked 30,326^th in the world and 243^rd in OTC Markets for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 6,402.55 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
