The Unified Republic of Genosa is a huge, orderly nation, ruled by Metias Pora with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, barren, inhospitable landscape, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 967 million Genosans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Genos. The average income tax rate is 48.2%.

The very strong Genosan economy, worth 75.6 trillion Doas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,189 Doas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

The regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb, crooks and people with too many kids are being kicked out of the country, the government seizes the property of the recently deceased, and photos of picturesque coastal buildings are set against a backdrop of smokestacks and ship hulls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Genosa's national animal is the Crow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Genosa is ranked 22,677^th in the world and 10^th in Talonia for Most Patriotic, with 44.58 flags saluted per person per day.
