The Bartending Instruction of Add Bitter is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.684 billion Add Bitterians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.1%.

The strong Add Bitterian economy, worth 249 trillion deniers a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 53,372 deniers, with the richest citizens earning 9.2 times as much as the poorest.

Heavy industry grinds to a halt as new equipment must be biked in, roosters that herald the rising sun are immediately sent to the slaughterhouse, corporations cut costs by taking away safety-features on their products, and Leader has just been declared ruler of Add Bitter in an international press conference. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Add Bitter's national animal is the porpoise, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Add Bitter is ranked 266,605^th in the world and 4^th in The Northern Union for Highest Drug Use, scoring 41.89 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
