The Republic of Nominal Abdominal is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, hard-working population of 1.177 billion Nominal Abdominalians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Peritonitcity. The average income tax rate is 46.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nominal Abdominalian economy, worth 128 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 109,298 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?", surgical tape has taken on a distinctly red color, and the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Nominal Abdominal's national animal is the whale, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Nominal Abdominal is ranked 236,956th in the world and 12,466th in Lazarus for Largest Populations, with 1.18 billion capita.
