The State of Gone Squirrelly is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 13.999 billion Gone Squirrellyians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The strong Gone Squirrellyian economy, worth 853 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 Pizza Delivery, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is 60,987 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 394,781 per year while the poor average 3,777, a ratio of 104 to 1.

Employers may fire workers without giving any reason, surveillance cameras are banned, 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. Gone Squirrelly's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Gone Squirrelly is ranked 94,500^th in the world and 5^th in Purgatory for Highest Food Quality, scoring 24.12 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
