Nation/Gobiania

The Federal Republic of Gobiania is a large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, national health service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 56 million Gobianians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.3%.

The powerhouse Gobianian economy, worth 5.04 trillion lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is 89,960 lire, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

The government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, breast milk is being redistributed from each according to their ability to each according to their need, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, and graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gobiania's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gobiania is ranked 34,284th in the world and 1,456th in The North Pacific for Nudest, with 185.75 Cheeks Per Square Mile.
