OverviewFactbookPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The United Kingdom of Abbaton is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by King Steven I with an even hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 5.154 billion Abbatonians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Industry, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Conchester. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Abbatonian economy, worth 461 trillion Tines a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 89,484 Tines, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

The tinfoil-hat crowd also recommend tinfoil wallets, every microwave and toaster is being disassembled and probed by inspectors, economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society, and door-to-door salesmen are frequently beaten up by 'vigilantes'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Abbaton's national animal is the Beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Secular.

Abbaton is ranked 50,167th in the world and 12th in Nova Britannia Prima for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 68.33 Effective Tax Rate.
