The Banana Republic of Greater Ale Permars is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by President Robert Rodriguez with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, avant-garde cinema, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 4.576 billion Greater Ale Permarsians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lyns. The average income tax rate is 67.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Greater Ale Permarsian economy, worth 499 trillion Permarks a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 109,216 Permarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, the government spends twice as much reclaiming lost settlements from the sea as it could've on coastal defences, hell is not always other people, and the government is attempting to impose a new national language on the public. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Ale Permars's national animal is the Jaguar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Universalism.
