The Federal Republic of Gehereholm is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 239 million Gehereholmians 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 medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 28.6%.

The strong Gehereholmian economy, worth 13.5 trillion Klangers a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 56,559 Klangers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gehereholm's national animal is the Lesser Gwungalus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gehereholm is ranked 111,183^rd in the world and 1^st in Totalitaria for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 2,298.27 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
