The Republic of Amabilis is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Pavel Rutkovsky with an iron fist, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, ban on automobiles, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 14.267 billion Amabilisians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Tondo. The average income tax rate is 93.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Amabilisian economy, worth a remarkable 4,190 trillion Pesos a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 293,708 Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

A century of peace does not preclude peace negotiations, a surprising number of travelers carry their water in vodka bottles, garden stores are not allowed to sell water butts, and weapons are only sold to foreign governments that are legitimate enough to not bounce the cheque. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amabilis's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Nashrelig.

Amabilis is ranked 48,485^th in the world and 433^rd in The East Pacific for Nudest, with 205.5 cheeks per square mile.
