OverviewDispatchesPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Republic of Gart Priess is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Winston Smith with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, unlimited-speed roads, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 8.832 billion Priesses are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dartoka. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Priessian economy, worth a remarkable 2,471 trillion Tankas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 279,798 Tankas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,015,470 per year while the poor average 54,907, a ratio of 18.5 to 1.

Vehicle strikes into low bridges are on the increase, children are raised bilingual from an early age, the national security service are a bunch of crooks, and it is technically inaccurate to call the dead 'worm food'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Gart Priess's national animal is the Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hoodoism.

Gart Priess is ranked 126,267th in the world and 2,314th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 271.45009016072 days.
