The Abbie Hoffman Nation of Steal This Book is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Activist with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, unlimited-speed roads, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 22.025 billion Steal This Bookians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Free Local Co-op. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 70.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Steal This Bookian economy, worth a remarkable 5,901 trillion Free Monies a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 267,934 Free Monies, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,368,308 per year while the poor average 28,881, a ratio of 47.4 to 1.

Tuba players are paid to quietly whisper into their instruments, subscribing to the Benevolence Society for Impoverished Leaders is an effective way to dodge the draft, children's daycare starts at the crack of dawn, and the tallest mountains are adorned with roller coasters. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Steal This Book's national animal is the Love Dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Agnostic Pantheism.

Steal This Book is ranked 4,061st in the world and 26th in NationStates for Most Cultured, scoring 186 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
