The Keizerrijk of The AbelLandia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Keizer Abel IV with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, enslaved workforce, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.166 billion AbelLandians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rotterdam. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 54.2%.

The frighteningly efficient AbelLandian economy, worth 391 trillion Schurfies a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 180,669 Schurfies, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,627,445 per year while the poor average 2,477, a ratio of 656 to 1.

The death penalty has been reintroduced, government solves problems by tossing money at the nearest geek, surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods, and copies of the constitution are used as toilet paper. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. The AbelLandia's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

The AbelLandia is ranked 2,018th in the world and 15th in Europe for Fattest Citizens, with 46.55 Obesity Rate.
