OverviewFactbookDispatchesPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Federal Republic of REPUBLIC OF GULPER is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its vat-grown people, unlimited-speed roads, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.488 billion GULPERians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Administration, Healthcare, and Welfare are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Lonau. The average income tax rate is 48.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient GULPERian economy, worth 152 trillion GULPAS a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,563 GULPAS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Photographers can be found hiding behind the curtains in Leader's bedroom, unpopular cops are fired at a moment's notice by the citizens they police, third world countries are rich in "I Love North Lonau" t-shirts, and 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. REPUBLIC OF GULPER's national animal is the Brushtail Possum, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

REPUBLIC OF GULPER is ranked 230,131st in the world and 4,466th in The North Pacific for Most Conservative, scoring 37.67 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
