The Missing letter of Afghan Stan is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 8.744 billion Afghan Stanians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stan. The average income tax rate is 47.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Afghan Stanian economy, worth 259 trillion deniers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Tourism, Trout Farming, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 29,702 deniers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all, the controversial show 'Who Wants to be an Immigrant?' has become wildly popular, funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals, and nations that kill an Afghan Stanian can expect a strongly worded letter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Afghan Stan's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Afghan Stan is ranked 115,616th in the world and 22nd in Gypsy Lands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 64.17 law-abiding acts per hour.
