The State of Gasperi is a titanic, pleasant nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 13.553 billion Gasperians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.7%.

The strong Gasperian economy, worth 787 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. Average income is 58,048 betales, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation is compulsory, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, Gasperi has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Gasperi in an international press conference. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Gasperi's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Gasperi is ranked 178,816^th in the world and 1^st in The Southern Isles for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 1,014.77 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
