The Rick of A full commitments is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Rick Astley with an even hand, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.4 billion full commitmentsians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rick. The average income tax rate is 53.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient full commitmentsian economy, worth 718 trillion Ricks a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 133,018 Ricks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign leaders who don't applaud Rick Astley's speeches are regarded as enemies of A full commitments, arbitrary election rules are considered sacrosanct, citizens are encouraged to show displeasure with politicians by poking them with sharp metal sticks, and victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. A full commitments's national animal is the Rick, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

A full commitments is ranked 63,443rd in the world and 223rd in The Funian Puppet Region for Most Conservative, scoring 74.5 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
