The Republic of Abtracnt is a gargantuan, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.816 billion Abtracntics are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ardentia. The average income tax rate is 88.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Abtracntic economy, worth 825 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Tourism industry. Average income is 59,775 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition, park rangers perform full-body searches on suspected fungus smugglers, peace talks occasionally rack up a higher body count than the wars they seek to stop, and sex changes are routinely performed at Abtracnt's hospitals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Abtracnt's national animal is the Abtracntian Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Abtracnt is ranked 177,181^st in the world and 7,210^th in The East Pacific for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -1.77 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
