The Sultanate of Abablonia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Sultan Ibrahim Han with an iron fist, and notable for its teetotalling pirates, complete lack of prisons, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.01 billion Abablonians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hattusa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Abablonian economy, worth 440 trillion dinars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 146,388 dinars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,262,031 per year while the poor average 2,816, a ratio of 448 to 1.

Everybody's got wood thanks to Sultan Ibrahim Han, in coastal waters there are fifteen salvage divers per dead man's chest (yo ho ho), all music has been banned, and children make Abablonia drive 'round. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Abablonia's national animal is the cobra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Islam.

Abablonia is ranked 307,698th in the world and 14th in The federation of Washington for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -6.32 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
