The Republic of Double Gloucester is a mammoth, efficient nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 8.044 billion Double Gloucesterians 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 tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.3%.

The thriving Double Gloucesterian economy, worth 460 trillion pounds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 57,221 pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 202,545 per year while the poor average 11,672, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Double Gloucester's national animal is the cow, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Double Gloucester is ranked 141,177^th in the world and 1^st in Hard Cheese for Highest Average Incomes, with 57,221.36 Standard Monetary Units.
