The Kingdom of Abadazad is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, anti-smoking policies, and compulsory vegetarianism. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.504 billion Abadazadians 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, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 92.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Abadazadian economy, worth a remarkable 1,341 trillion keys 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 127,750 keys, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, international collectors know that a grease-stain on a work of art probably means it's passed through Abadazad, onions have been banned due to their tendency to cause eye irritation, and foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Abadazad's national animal is the monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Abadazad is ranked 2,652nd in the world and 118th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 134.35 law-abiding acts per hour.
