The Axolotl Empire of Andrendia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Andrea Oloto VII with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 6.117 billion Andreians 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 large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andreopolis. The average income tax rate is 90.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Andreian economy, worth 879 trillion Bricks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 143,731 Bricks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government only invests in infrastructure after a natural disaster, Dogman-branded weapons are all the rage in the militaristic comic-book community, escalators are avoided at all costs, and the leading national news source is 'my cousin Billy-Bob on MyFace'. Crime is totally unknown. Andrendia's national animal is the Axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Azaelism.

Andrendia is ranked 29,941^st in the world and 698^th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 82.76 law-abiding acts per hour.
