The County of South Abaco is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its deadly medical pandemics, public floggings, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 8.063 billion South Abacoans 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Freeport Grand Abaco. The average income tax rate is 24.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong South Abacoan economy, worth 566 trillion Grand Abacoan Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Woodchip Exports, Retail, Basket Weaving, and Soda Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 70,286 Grand Abacoan Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Tourists are duped into trimming hedges for the horsy-set, undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations, recognised healthcare professionals treat diabetes with a grain of sugar in a barrel of water, and the Hanging Gardens account for half of Freeport Grand Abaco's water use. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. South Abaco's national animal is the Iguana, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

South Abaco is ranked 265,015th in the world and 15th in Safan for Most Beautiful Environments, with 119.35 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
