Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Most Serene Republic of Goggalorostan is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor General with a fair hand, and renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 8.878 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Law & Order receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Goggalorostan City. The average income tax rate is 84%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.

The people are furious with the government for allowing citizens to be executed for petty crimes in foreign countries, teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, and euthanasia is legal. Crime is totally unknown. Goggalorostan's national animal is the brown bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the arrowhead.

Goggalorostan is ranked 139th in The East Pacific and 5,738th in the world for Most Influential, scoring 54 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
