The Republic of Absolute communism23 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its pith helmet sales, parental licensing program, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.124 billion Absolute communism23ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Absolute communism23ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,169 trillion deniers a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 191,016 deniers, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

Construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway, the government has returned all business to private ownership, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and every day has been a surprise since weather reporters turned to consulting ancient totems for their seven-day forecasts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Absolute communism23's national animal is the elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Absolute communism23 is ranked 23,131st in the world and 1,505th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 87.29 law-abiding acts per hour.
