The Republic of Geriat is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by President Issaka Sidibé with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, ubiquitous missile silos, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 11.159 billion Geriatians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Villa Cisneros. The average income tax rate is 67.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Geriatian economy, worth a remarkable 1,358 trillion Geriatian Shillings a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 121,751 Geriatian Shillings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Purported secret military bases are dismissed by President Issaka Sidibé to be highly-advanced toilet factories, the moon's craters are more numerous every day, people who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned, and more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Geriat's national animal is the Grey Crowned Crane, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Protestant Christianity.

Geriat is ranked 3,368^th in the world and 3^rd in Modorra for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 8,241.29 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
