The Supreme and Exalted Empire of Gatchina is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Prime Minister Wentworth with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, strictly enforced bedtime, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 29.774 billion Gatchinans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Strelsau. The average income tax rate is 89.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gatchinan economy, worth a remarkable 8,838 trillion Rubles a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 296,841 Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Officer recruitment and police brutality have reached an all-time high, access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, surveys show 100% of Gatchinans are never, ever tired, and nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Gatchina's national animal is the Double Headed Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is USCJ Judaism.

Gatchina is ranked 6,785^th in the world and 1^st in Krasnaya for Largest Populations, with 29.8 billion capita.
