The District of Surrey is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Liard with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of public education, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 29.346 billion Surreyians 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, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.

The very strong Surreyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,223 trillion aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 41,703 aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 283,535 per year while the poor average 2,240, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The government is avowedly atheist, voting is voluntary, Surrey has designated District City as its capital city, and Liard has just been declared ruler of Surrey in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Surrey's national animal is the bovina, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Surrey is ranked 236,019^th in the world and 1^st in Surrey for Nicest Citizens, with 10.55 average smiles per day.
