The Democratic Republic of Glory Be Ferret is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by James Swilm with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.191 billion Glory Be Ferretians are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Industry, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eversmanii. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 84.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Glory Be Ferretian economy, worth 654 trillion Weasels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 205,105 Weasels, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.
The government's policy is 'all pain, no grain', it is not politically correct to suspect that a serially convicted burglar might steal again, artists are pillars of society, and the people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Glory Be Ferret's national animal is the Ferret, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Glory Be Ferret is ranked 228,307th in the world and 99th in Liberal Democratic Union for Most Stationary, with 25.89037926348 days.
