The Democratic Republic of North Abandonia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by President Fredonia with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, fear of technology, and frequent executions. The compassionate, devout population of 4.909 billion Fredonians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fredonia. The average income tax rate is 96.8%.
The frighteningly efficient North Abandonian economy, worth 611 trillion Fredons a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 124,471 Fredons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Eating kids as food has been enshrined in law, CEOs are forced to cut coupons during important conference calls to make ends meet, garden stores are not allowed to sell water butts, and the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Abandonia's national animal is the Fredonian Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Fredoniasm.
North Abandonia is ranked 69,488th in the world and 1,247th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 110.08 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
