The Republic of Abelian groups is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its public floggings, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 4.61 billion Abelian groupsians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Abelian groupsian economy, worth 407 trillion Duckcoins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,288 Duckcoins, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

The digital money revolution has cashed out, tax assessment offices double as polling stations, only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens, and many of the unemployed have had the fight taken out of them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Abelian groups's national animal is the Duck, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Abelian groups is ranked 24,469^th in the world and 8^th in Artificial Solar System for Most Developed, scoring 85.24 on the Human Development Index.
