The GRAND★IMPERIAL★COMMONWEALTH of GOLTZBORG is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Comrade Chairman Smirnoff with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and frequent executions. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.688 billion GOLTZBORGians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ★ Goltzburg Capital Zone CZ ★. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient GOLTZBORGian economy, worth a remarkable 1,390 trillion DigitDollar dDs a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 130,132 DigitDollar dDs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens receive notices of disenfranchisement along with their parking tickets, virtual assistants are seen with increasing suspicion every time they get an upgrade, the nation has an international reputation for compassion, and brains have been removed from lists of best brain foods. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. GOLTZBORG's national animal is the Double-Headed Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Goltz Eastern Imperial Orthodox Church.

GOLTZBORG is ranked 270,357^th in the world and 21^st in The IMPERIUM for Most Secular, with 6.57 Atheism Rate.
