The Republic of Absu is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 584 million Absans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Abidjan. The average income tax rate is 22.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Absuan economy, worth 34.4 trillion nuls a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,973 nuls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are prohibited from raising their voice above thirty decibels in commercial districts, infantry are nicknamed "mushrooms" because they get fed crap and are left in the dark, hospitals fear government fines more than terrorist ransoms, and Absu has designated Abidjan as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Absu's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Absu is ranked 109,585^th in the world and 6,759^th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.84 law-abiding acts per hour.
