The Completely Failed State of Angbhand is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Endymion with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, strictly enforced bedtime, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 16.942 billion Angbhandians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Industry, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sylvania. The average income tax rate is 78.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Angbhandian economy, worth an astonishing 12,895 trillion dollars 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. 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 a breathtaking 761,183 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps", foreign envoys that want to visit Angbhand now have to navigate real minefields in addition to the political ones, the national Police Academies have dedicated infant wings, and graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail. Crime is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Angbhand's national animal is the worg, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Angbhand is ranked 285,711^th in the world and 6,906^th in the Rejected Realms for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 0.99 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
