The Queendom of GarisOA is a large, cultured nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 151 million GarisOAians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.2%.

The all-consuming GarisOAian economy, worth 12.3 trillion Zenies a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 81,329 Zenies, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign policy often involves bullwhips and leather, repurposed warships fire swag at company promotional events, planes with cockpit glass are reserved for the top pilots, and chest pains are considered part of the dining experience in GarisOAian restaurants. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. GarisOA's national animal is the Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

GarisOA is ranked 245,620^th in the world and 3,106^th in the South Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 185.24 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
