OverviewFactbookDispatchesPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The United Commonwealths of Gagium is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Arsène Rodier with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 15.076 billion Gagians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Louis. The average income tax rate is 5.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Gagian economy, worth a remarkable 4,636 trillion Gagis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 307,517 Gagis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens have to identify all the polar bears in a blizzard photo in order to access their bank account, the teaching of evolution has been banned, an increasing number of citizens believe the world is flat, and it's said that a Gagian always pays his debts with significant compounding. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Gagium's national animal is the Pelican, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Christianity.

Gagium is ranked 10,721st in the world and 597th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 115 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
