The compassionate, democratic population of 346 million Anarchist Blocians 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 67.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Anarchist Blocian economy, worth 3.56 trillion pounds 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 slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Furniture Restoration, Pizza Delivery, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda 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 10,298 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Anarchist Bloc's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
