The Pirate Ship of Captain Gecko Moria is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Gecko Moria with an iron fist, and renowned for its smutty television, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.894 billion zombieses are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thriller Bark. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 84.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Captain Gecko Morian economy, worth 283 trillion Berries a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 149,527 Berries, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.

Exiles see that the line where the sky meets the sea is just clouds and rain, lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed, aging citizens are celebrating the end of the 'Early Bird War', and arbitrary election rules are considered sacrosanct. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Captain Gecko Moria's national animal is the Zombies.

Captain Gecko Moria is ranked 222,069th in the world and 1st in Thriller Bark for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -3.92 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
