The United Socialist Kingdom of Lower Antegria is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by The National Council with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.754 billion Lower Antegrians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Calliope. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lower Antegrian economy, worth 239 trillion Gennels a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 136,320 Gennels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Police struggle to solve crimes due to the lack of fingerprint records, the nation wears its high incidence of chromosomal diseases as a badge of pride, search-and-rescue organisations are the biggest employer in the country, and Party members are derided as class traitors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lower Antegria's national animal is the Xoloitzcuintli, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lower Antegria is ranked 231,620th in the world and 136th in Karma for Most Conservative, scoring 45.17 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
