The Commonwealth of Get Real 29 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its soft-spoken computers, public floggings, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 2.97 billion Get Real 29ians 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 Defense, Education, and Environment. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.0%.

The Get Real 29ian economy, worth 179 trillion packs 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 a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. 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 60,550 packs, with the richest citizens earning 9.1 times as much as the poorest.

Urban graffiti is hand-calligraphed in perfectly kerned elegant fonts, passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life, many marriages go virtually unconsummated, and citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Get Real 29's national animal is the junk values, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
