The Kingdom of Angladen is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by King Olivier with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and daily referendums. The compassionate, cheerful population of 5.691 billion Angladiens enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cardiff. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Angladien economy, worth a remarkable 1,142 trillion Angladien pounds a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 200,707 Angladien pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government agents stalk the aisles of grocery stores for out-of-stock medications, schoolboys who turn to watch pretty girls go by are given detention, cogitators and mass debaters are skiving off work to hang around the National Symposium Park, and some are born loving old plays and some have old plays thrust upon them. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Angladen's national animal is the polar bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Angladen is ranked 4,030^th in the world and 1^st in Angladen for Lowest Crime Rates, with 122.06 law-abiding acts per hour.
