The Queendom of Afanasios is a very large, genial nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, digital currency, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 395 million Afanasiosians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Environment are ignored. The average income tax rate is 12.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Afanasiosian economy, worth 15.4 trillion Medas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 39,105 Medas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government officially wants you to slow down and speak more clearly, in Soviet Afanasios the pizza orders you, Leader is going to the moon, and scavengers with burlap sacks and shovels skulk around graveyards. Crime is almost non-existent. Afanasios's national animal is the Dorian Vulture, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Afanasios is ranked 264,685^th in the world and 8^th in Austritaria for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 12.29 Effective Tax Rate.
