The Free Land of Gasienice is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, democratic population of 2.077 billion Gasienicans 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 10.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Gasienicean economy, worth 102 trillion kitankas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is 49,583 kitankas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

It's all quiet on the western front, anti-vacs campaigners claim the government is inserting weird devices into their bodies, fake designer clothes are shredded and burnt while many in the world don't have a shirt on their back, and convicted murderers are free to walk the streets provided they attend rehabilitation classes. Crime is almost non-existent. Gasienice's national animal is the bobr.

Gasienice is ranked 94,368^th in the world and 1,240^th in The North Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 11.49 Obesity Rate.
