The Oppressed Peoples of Greater Gobbishiptest is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by T-Swizzle with an iron fist, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 6.874 billion Greater Gobbishiptestians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gobbish. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Greater Gobbishiptestian economy, worth 244 trillion bitcoins a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,539 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Only criminals carry guns, armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, 50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, and unsolved crimes are often pinned on veterans with PTSD. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Gobbishiptest's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Gobbishiptestianism.
Greater Gobbishiptest is ranked 60,521st in the world and 3,671st in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.68 law-abiding acts per hour.
