The Federal Republic of Gitlok is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Gitesh Bajpeyee with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory vegetarianism, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 4.05 billion Gitlokians 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 Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Peaceity. The average income tax rate is 65.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gitlokian economy, worth 450 trillion Rupees a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 111,167 Rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, real chickens replace rooster weather vanes on inner-city rooftop gardens, the army spends more time producing 'romantic videos' than actually training soldiers, and government adverts say that twelve lashes a day keeps divine wrath at bay. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gitlok's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hindu.

Gitlok is ranked 251,079^th in the world and 4,530^th in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 2.06 flags saluted per person per day.
