The Confederacy of Gotrina is a small, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 32 million Gotrinans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.9%.

The strong Gotrinan economy, worth 1.61 trillion euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 50,454 euros, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Mosh pits are a common phenomenon in Leader's political rallies, stockbrokers dream of getting rich by writing textbooks, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and surveillance cameras are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gotrina's national animal is the sheep, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Gotrina is ranked 164,927^th in the world and 2^nd in Marinthos Isles for Highest Average Incomes, with 50,454.04 Standard Monetary Units.
