The Kingdom of Gestonia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Edward IV with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 5.742 billion Gestonians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lincoln DC. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Gestonian economy, worth 631 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 109,956 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's new currency features full-length portraits of Edward IV in ermine and velvet garb, citizens who leave the nation for work are instantly charged with treason, doctors ask for written consent before making eye contact with patients, and the most penniless demographics have by far the highest number of researchers per capita. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gestonia's national animal is the Martins, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

Gestonia is ranked 212,113th in the world and 26th in Krillin for Most Income Equality, scoring 17.89 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
