The Republic of Gay Male is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 1.534 billion Hapians 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.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Los Angeles. The average income tax rate is 28.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Gay Malean economy, worth 54.7 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Pizza Delivery, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,674 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The "boy who cried wolf" policy makes sick people reluctant to call an ambulance, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and Gay Male has designated North Los Angeles as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gay Male's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Gay Male is ranked 98,249^th in the world and 3^rd in Sex for Fattest Citizens, with 11.35 Obesity Rate.
