The Republic of Antiyard is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, frequent executions, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 14.922 billion Antiyardians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caramba. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Antiyardian economy, worth a remarkable 3,161 trillion Konigs a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 211,849 Konigs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Feeling like a winner comes at a price, Caramba has restaurants serving every meat from aardvark to zebra, no one believes anything until it has been strenuously tested and peer-reviewed, and school children are expected to know the names of all seven hundred native tribes and their cultural practices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Antiyard's national animal is the Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Antiyard is ranked 279,956^th in the world and 5,915^th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -11.05 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
