The Union of Aduw is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Jack Cümpen with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.13 billion Aduws are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vienna. The average income tax rate is 72.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aduwish economy, worth 239 trillion Schillings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 112,465 Schillings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, bored politicians often entertain themselves with games of Simon during important votes, it is illegal for a parent to tell a child to stop eating their boogers, and children are raised bilingual from an early age. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Aduw's national animal is the Black Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Aduw is ranked 98,028th in the world and 319th in The Leftist Assembly for Safest, scoring 83.49 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
