The Holy Empire of Gabbatha is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 14.708 billion Gabbathans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, although Law & Order, Welfare, and Defense are also considered important, while Environment and International Aid receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.3%.

The strong Gabbathan economy, worth 915 trillion Freedoms a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 62,271 Freedoms, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.

The nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, Harry Potter books are banned, the death penalty has been reintroduced, and the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gabbatha's national animal is the Fennec Fox, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Gabbatha is ranked 152,525^th in the world and 6,974^th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 60.82 law-abiding acts per hour.
