The Commonwealth of Gaeslan 314 is a gargantuan, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 16.02 billion Gaeslan 314ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 68.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Gaeslan 314ian economy, worth 99.3 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 6,197 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gaeslan 314's national animal is the gyrfalcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Gaeslan 314 is ranked 163,629^th in the world and 1^st in The Communist Union of Leninists for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 403.44 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
