The People's Republic of Anacomia is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.51 billion Anacomians 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it prioritizes Healthcare, although Education, Welfare, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 85.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Anacomian economy, worth 263 trillion marshes a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 30,955 marshes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, judicial torture is outsourced overseas, an aboriginal talking stick is used for leaders' debates at election time, and defense lawyers suggestively note to juries how flagrantly happy victims were. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anacomia's national animal is the platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Anacomia is ranked 201,242^nd in the world and 104^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Most Primitive, scoring -83.07 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
