The Republic of Absolute communism13 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.263 billion Absolute communism13ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 59.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Absolute communism13ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,196 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 191,099 guilders, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation is compulsory, thousands of picky mothers-in-law have been recruited to serve as even pickier cookery instructors, a blood-red mark on the doorframe means a building must be passed over for destruction, and homeless people dying of starvation are thought to be a necessary cost of preventing terrorism. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Absolute communism13's national animal is the giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Absolute communism13 is ranked 2,403rd in the world and 58th in Osiris for Most Patriotic, with 93.34 flags saluted per person per day.
