The Technocratic Republic of Gentea is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Ena Dreesen with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, vat-grown people, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.236 billion Genteans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Treovia. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Gentean economy, worth 487 trillion gentan marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 150,587 gentan marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, it is not politically correct to suspect that a serially convicted burglar might steal again, and diplomatic missions typically end with a flurry of childish insults, accusations and phlegm. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gentea's national animal is the cardinal bird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Gentea is ranked 3,874^th in the world and 112^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 15,725.24 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
