The People's Republic of Absolute communism218 is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, parental licensing program, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.418 billion Absolute communism218ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Absolute communism218ian economy, worth 646 trillion Deneroes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 146,315 Deneroes, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

Grazing lands are filled with cattle wearing odd-looking anti-pollution devices, freighter lifeboats have been replaced by state of the art marker buoys so divers can recover the cargo after they sink, wedding bands come in pairs to form wedding manacles, and commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Absolute communism218's national animal is the Lion.

Absolute communism218 is ranked 112,151st in the world and 1,685th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 354.71600909272 days.
