The State of George Gordon Meade is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of public education, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 21.77 billion George Gordon Meadeans enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, liberal, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.6%.

The thriving George Gordon Meadean economy, worth 855 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 39,299 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 113,816 per year while the poor average 10,753, a ratio of 10.6 to 1.

Elections have been outlawed, all tariffs have been abolished, and the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. George Gordon Meade's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

George Gordon Meade is ranked 147,944^th in the world and 6^th in Victoria City for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 36,705.92 Standard Monetary Units.
