The 4th Republican Government of The Antarian Commonwealth is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Presidential Council with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.827 billion Antarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nanshang. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Antarian economy, worth 810 trillion Antarian Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 167,836 Antarian Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, populations of two-headed Pallas Cats have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, international tensions are high as The Antarian Commonwealth threatens any government with the audacity to arrest its citizens, and a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Antarian Commonwealth's national animal is the Pallas Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Marxist Existentialism.

The Antarian Commonwealth is ranked 3,378^th in the world and 66^th in The Communist Bloc for Lowest Crime Rates, with 126.86 law-abiding acts per hour.
