The Principality of Clanankia is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its national health service and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 8 million Clanankians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 36.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The developing Clanankian economy, worth 253 billion Clankmarks a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 31,673 Clankmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lawyers spend as much time preparing their make-up as they do their briefs, lonely people are supposed to be cheered up by the many parties that they are never invited to, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, and lip-readers are often left perplexed by political rallies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Clanankia's national animal is the Selkie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Clanankia is ranked 212,254^th in the world and 58^th in womp for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -2.41 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
