The Unified Actuality of About Time is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Y221Z - MC95 with a fair hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, smutty television, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 29.946 billion About Timeans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Environment, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Click-Clock City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient About Timean economy, worth a remarkable 9,980 trillion Fundamentals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 333,271 Fundamentals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow, saying "don't do anything that Y221Z - MC95 wouldn't do" doesn't exclude a great deal, roadside walls are being built and mother nature is paying for it, and rumor has it that Y221Z - MC95 has won three lotteries in a row. Crime is totally unknown. About Time's national animal is the Cos'M'Alien, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

About Time is ranked 2,957th in the world and 139th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 130.93 law-abiding acts per hour.
