The Armed Republic of GU 98th Air Wing is a huge, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 980 million GU 98th Air Wingians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 17.4%.

The GU 98th Air Wingian economy, worth 44.0 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 44,916 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

The colors pink and purple are banned from military unit insignia, cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, male friends are often accompanied by a female relative in order to prove their 'straightness', and imitation is the sincerest form of felony. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate. GU 98th Air Wing's national animal is the turtle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
