The Republic of ABC123 98 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, free-roaming dinosaurs, and enslaved workforce. The hard-working, devout population of 9.266 billion ABC123 98ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.7%.

The strong ABC123 98ian economy, worth 490 trillion rewergs a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 52,970 rewergs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 202,114 per year while the poor average 9,604, a ratio of 21.0 to 1.

Abacus sales outpace those of the personal computer following the closure of the Internet, people with political aspirations study how to make balloon animals, the nation's once beautiful countryside has turned brown as farmers spray potent pesticides, and new arrivals are asked the location of the Minister of the Interior's birthmark. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ABC123 98's national animal is the wergwerg, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

ABC123 98 is ranked 140,248^th in the world and 3,046^th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 61.81 law-abiding acts per hour.
