The United Socialist States of Anti-Saciness is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 270 million Anti-Sacinessians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 54.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Anti-Sacinessian economy, worth 8.08 trillion Boods a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,912 Boods, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has become a pariah for giving pirates letters of marque, churches frequently hold public 'contraception burnings', perverts across the land rejoice after 'sexual harassment' was recently renamed 'persuasive courting', and the entire entry for Anti-Saciness in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the World reads 'mostly harmless'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anti-Saciness's national animal is the Weasel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Anti-Saciness is ranked 123,861st in the world and 7th in The Coalition of Card Buddies for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,577.87 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
