The Republic of Guarantee is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning cow population. The hard-working population of 1.709 billion Guaranteeans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 29.2%.

The Guaranteean economy, worth 59.5 trillion marks a year, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Average income is 34,830 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Guarantee's national animal is the cow.

Guarantee is ranked 201,172^nd in the world and 676^th in Concord for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
