The Federation of Abyssaly is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its digital currency, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 620 million Abyssalyians 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, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Abyssal'Um. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Abyssalyian economy, worth 78.6 trillion Ibysses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 126,725 Ibysses, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 490,998 per year while the poor average 22,416, a ratio of 21.9 to 1.

The roundel of the Abyssalyian Air Force has become an internationally recognized symbol of destruction, Abyssalyians have become death, the destroyer of worlds, rural Abyssalyians stare in awe at the bright lights of the big cities, and recent events have left citizens both shaken and stirred. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Abyssaly's national animal is the Species 8472, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Abyssaly is ranked 117,849^th in the world and 363^rd in Concord for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,780.17 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
