The Commonwealth of Abolish is a tiny, orderly nation, renowned for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 18 million Employees are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Defense, Industry, and Public Transport are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.8%.

The very strong Working economy, worth 1.06 trillion Worths a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Information Technology. Average income is 58,641 Worths, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Lottery winners spend most of their money on security, Jennifer Government is banned, visitors to Abolish are microchipped and must be escorted by a Working soldier - even to the bathroom, and forest fires have dropped dramatically as there are hardly any forests left. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Abolish's national animal is the Human, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Abolish is ranked 81,993rd in the world and 377th in the Outback for Largest Information Technology Sector, scoring 6,345.44 on the Fann-Boi Productivity Index.
