The ⯌𝕄𝕪ℍ𝕒𝕚𝕜𝕦⯎ of Gasapi is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.832 billion Gasapians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.4%.

The thriving Gasapian economy, worth 150 trillion Podax Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Gambling. Average income is 81,885 Podax Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 295,887 per year while the poor average 16,179, a ratio of 18.3 to 1.

Baiting is a national sport, convicted conmen and fraudsters often leave prison to enter a career in politics, bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, and trying to toast marshmallows in an electric fireplace just isn't the same. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Gasapi's national animal is the Gasteracantha, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Gasapi is ranked 208,094th in the world and 36th in Gypsy Lands for Highest Drug Use, scoring 91.38 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
