The Oppressed Peoples of And stay down is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Our Dear Leader with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 21.858 billion Grindees have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government prioritizes Environment, although Industry, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Social Policy and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ivory Towers. The average income tax rate is 2.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient And stay downian economy, worth a remarkable 5,450 trillion minicoins 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, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. 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 an amazing 249,350 minicoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, the once prosperous capital is in utter decline, this year's hottest fashion trend is the Lese Majeste collection, and citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. And stay down's national animal is the dogeatdog, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is dogeatdogma.

And stay down is ranked 25,459th in the world and 23rd in The Kingdom of Great Britain for Most Stationary, with 1,451.2156337214 days.
