The Festive Northern Haven of Anxious and Kevin is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mikkel Åhlqvist with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 2.565 billion Anxiousiins enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ansburn. The average income tax rate is 88.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Anxiousiin economy, worth 180 trillion Kruskars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism. Average income is 70,250 Kruskars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, workers have their fruitcake and eat it too, politicians' financial records are locked up tighter than the nation's Kruskar reserves, and future forecasters fearfully discuss grey goo and human obsolescence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anxious and Kevin's national animal is the Svalbard Reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Norse Paganism.
Anxious and Kevin is ranked 218,471st in the world and 140th in Forest for Most Primitive, scoring -86.37 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
