The Dictatorship of Geckos is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Barry the Berry lover with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.548 billion Geckosians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while Social Policy isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berry bottom. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 91.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Geckosian economy, worth a remarkable 2,204 trillion gecko bucks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 292,008 gecko bucks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,039,117 per year while the poor average 59,079, a ratio of 17.6 to 1.

The church encourages double-dipping, adults have never outgrown their fear of monsters, Barry the Berry lover's recent "I have a dream that we will fight them by raking muck on the beaches" speech seems a little derivative to many, and marijuana is legal in the privacy of your own home. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Geckos's national animal is the gecko, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is geckoism.

Geckos is ranked 13,397^th in the world and 1^st in Waifu for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,758.95 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
