The Federal Republic of An Si is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Uachtarán Olli with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.467 billion Sians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maighe Tuireadh. The average income tax rate is 82.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Sian economy, worth 474 trillion punts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 86,834 punts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Public projects are synonymous with yawn-inducing conformity, no personal detail is too tiny for the suede-denim census police, the numbers on the latest spending report are reaching stellar levels, and contestants on An Si's Got Talent are screened by the government to make sure that they actually have talent. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. An Si's national animal is the mountain hare, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Secularism.

An Si is ranked 14,978^th in the world and 18^th in Libertarian Socialist Confederation for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 82.05 Effective Tax Rate.
