The Kingdom of Antorkan is a very large, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 362 million Antorkanians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.7%.

The thriving Antorkanian economy, worth 25.8 trillion kainens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Soda Sales. Average income is 71,224 kainens, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 214,634 per year while the poor average 18,426, a ratio of 11.6 to 1.

The jails are alive with the sound of birdsong, fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding", there are traffic jams at sea as diligent customs officers check every part of every ship, and one little fight can find you movin' to be the fresh prince of Ilba. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Antorkan's national animal is the eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Antorkan is ranked 250,072^nd in the world and 8^th in Federations of Welsh FOW for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 27.09 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
