The Socialist Republic of Abbagagania is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by General Secretary with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 15.495 billion Abbagaganians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint François. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Abbagaganian economy, worth a remarkable 2,682 trillion Knuts 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 led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 173,112 Knuts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rioting during the nation's hosting of ORDER caused one million Knuts of property damage, spies caught red-handed are served cocktails on their first-class flights home, there's a mortuary next to every Abbagaganian restaurant, and the nation faces constant invasions by foreign boy bands. Crime is totally unknown. Abbagagania's national animal is the Ground Sloth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Abbagagania is ranked 19,102nd in the world and 69th in Forest for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.46 law-abiding acts per hour.
