The Grand Duchy of Annpakt is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its smutty television, infamous sell-swords, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 793 million Annpaktians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dranske. The average income tax rate is 39.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Annpaktian economy, worth 99.4 trillion AnnSouvWährs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 125,313 AnnSouvWährs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

You can bet your bottom dollar that gambling will cost you an arm and a leg, the Annpaktian Babysitters Club has proven to be a huge relief to stressed-out parents across the nation, Annpaktians are regularly fired for looking at MyFace during their lunch breaks, and they say that Leader's personal computer is full of naked pictures of the Emperor of Maxtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Annpakt's national animal is the Germanic Black Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Annpakt is ranked 25,801^st in the world and 440^th in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 896.5 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
