The Socialist Republic of Abbagagania is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by General Secretary with a fair hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 15.393 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 2,665 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 173,146 Knuts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cosmopolitan citizens ask what their countries can do for them, being General Secretary has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, rioting during the nation's hosting of ORDER caused one million Knuts of property damage, and spies caught red-handed are served cocktails on their first-class flights home. 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 88,398th in the world and 153rd in Forest for Most Stationary, with 514.98639263072 days.
