The Velocracy of The Anaerobic Republic is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Godot with a fair hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, daily referendums, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 19.571 billion Anaerobic Republicians 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 relatively small, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Voigtgrad. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Anaerobic Republician economy, worth a remarkable 4,708 trillion Lucres a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 240,580 Lucres, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only vaccinated citizens may have free healthcare, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, builders across The Anaerobic Republic are blocked up with orders for new public loos, and excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside. Crime is almost non-existent. The Anaerobic Republic's national animal is the Wombat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Anaerobic Republic is ranked 52,946th in the world and 122nd in United Kingdom for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 3,715.26 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
