The Nonsensical Absurdity of Abject Ludicrosity is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by an Empress with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 14.251 billion Abject Ludicrosities are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cavtat. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Abjectly Ludicrous economy, worth a remarkable 2,182 trillion Dinars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 153,161 Dinars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 675,593 per year while the poor average 21,759, a ratio of 31.0 to 1.

The Cavtat Pride Parade's head banner explains how unionizing is heteronormative, fan-made edits of old films have seen a sudden jump in quality, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and the sudden proliferation of nuclear weapons is very queer. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Abject Ludicrosity's national animal is the Poskok, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Empress Worship.

Abject Ludicrosity is ranked 293,347th in the world and 6th in Monarchist League for Lowest Crime Rates, with 3.94 law-abiding acts per hour.
