The Joyous Land of Geneviev is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by The People with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.33 billion Genevievians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Peregrine. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.
The powerhouse Genevievian economy, worth a remarkable 1,169 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports. Average income is 94,822 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A little pushing and pulling is needed for big ships to pass, cheese lovers have a case of the bleus, pocket calculators are seen as status symbols for the ostentatiously wealthy, and genocide is seen as a topic best avoided in history lessons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Geneviev's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Geneviev is ranked 15,857th in the world and 887th in Osiris for Most Cultured, scoring 99 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
