The Republic of Geriland is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, pith helmet sales, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.267 billion Gerilandians 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, Defense, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 58.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gerilandian economy, worth 245 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,257 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Wandering Gerilandians are known for their one-track minds, diplomatic cables about Leader have suddenly been very flattering, the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, and the nation's weary schoolchildren excel at sport but must count scores on their fingers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Geriland's national animal is the German Shepard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Geriland is ranked 273,040^th in the world and 4,809^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -167.55 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
