The Commonwealth of Agonist Enclaves is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 253 million Agonist Enclavesians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Agonist Enclavesian economy, worth 4.27 trillion marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 16,896 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, internal strife within the Red Bloc crumbles in the face of fiery rhetoric, Leader's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Agonist Enclaves's national animal is the phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Agonist Enclaves is ranked 177,661^st in the world and 11^th in Greater Necanica for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,282.29 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
