The Grand Duchy of USS Gerald Ford is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.614 billion USS Gerald Fordians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 31.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The USS Gerald Fordian economy, worth 199 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is 43,214 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Billions of Delta Eagles are being poured into a space program, government police forces protect public schools from the threat of protest, parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, and nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. USS Gerald Ford's national animal is the Kitsune, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

USS Gerald Ford is ranked 219,254^th in the world and 5^th in Inwit for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -3.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
