The Republic of Gary1 is a titanic, safe nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, parental licensing program, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, devout population of 11.504 billion Gary1ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare is ignored. The average income tax rate is 51.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Gary1ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,079 trillion pesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is 93,863 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, diplomatic missions typically end with a flurry of childish insults, accusations and phlegm, a murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, and typing Leader's name into a search engine always gives zero matches. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gary1's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gary1 is ranked 70,146^th in the world and 1^st in Imperton for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,447.92 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
