The Emirate of Abu Dhabi is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its national health service, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 22.868 billion Abu Dhabians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Abu Dhabian economy, worth a remarkable 4,039 trillion Golds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is an impressive 176,658 Golds, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,451,387 per year while the poor average 4,520, a ratio of 321 to 1.

The army lures cannon fodder with promises of a college education, five-year-olds who refuse to line up on command get gold stars, the attempt to control the weather has ended in environmental disaster, and six-year-old children playing dress-up are viewed with suspicion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Abu Dhabi's national animal is the Elephant, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Abu Dhabi is ranked 129,971^st in the world and 6,291^st in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 62.74 law-abiding acts per hour.
