The Accelerated progressives of Apollo123 is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Fee with an iron fist, and remarkable for its closed borders, rum-swilling pirates, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.154 billion Apollo are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 68.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Apollo economy, worth 279 trillion pens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Retail, Arms Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Soda Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 129,820 pens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

The undead are an officially recognised ethnic minority (Apollo123 has found 1 easter egg), the government confiscates candy from babies for 'the greater good' of the nation, the nation's drinking water tends to glow green at night, and kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Apollo123's national animal is the junkbot, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Rodsniw.

Apollo123 is ranked 34,900th in the world and 37th in Hell for Highest Poor Incomes, with 69,252 Standard Monetary Units.
