The Really Nice Folks of Guy0307 is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Guy with a fair hand, and notable for its hatred of cheese. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 7.397 billion love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Education, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Franklin. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance, the nation has an international reputation for compassion, space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, and the art of conversation has been rediscovered. Crime is totally unknown. Guy0307's national animal is the Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Kanquren.

Guy0307 is ranked 1st in Triton and 259th in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 239 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
