The State of Garfield Whitman is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Liard with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 32.553 billion Garfield Whitmanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.0%.

The very strong Garfield Whitmanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,452 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 44,622 betales, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary, Garfield Whitman has designated District City as its capital city, Liard has just been declared ruler of Garfield Whitman in an international press conference, and a major religion has been named as Garfield Whitman's national religion. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Garfield Whitman's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Garfield Whitman is ranked 215,194^th in the world and 470^th in United States of America for Most Beautiful Environments, with 448.51 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
