The Socialist Dictatorship of Ambibia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Horendad Vonwelder with an iron fist, and notable for its restrictive gun laws. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.336 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Defence and Education are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oreli. The average income tax rate is 91%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

School uniforms are compulsory, female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast, euthanasia is legal, and public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ambibia's national animal is the Purple Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Turkmenistism, and its currency is the Remmet.

Ambibia is ranked 3rd in United Peoples Front for Socialism and 5,825th in the world for Most Influential, scoring 56 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
