The Shining Stars in Dawn of Apabeossie is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Emilia Haisel with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.49 billion Apavissians 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 medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sardilla. The average income tax rate is 90.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Apavi economy, worth a remarkable 2,958 trillion sias a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 236,847 sias, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

In musicals everybody's a little bit racist, there is something rotten in the state of Apabeossie, airplanes have giant grilles on their noses to knock drones out of their path, and building a phallus out of Minecraft blocks counts as indecent exposure. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Apabeossie's national animal is the Croian everlark, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Apabeossie is ranked 610^th in the world and 8^th in Europe for Nicest Citizens, with 121.66 average smiles per day.
