The Womyn's Paradise of Gynostan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Sister Number One with an iron fist, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, keen interest in outer space, and lack of airports. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 23.098 billion Gynos are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — prioritizes Defense, with Environment and Law & Order also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Femininegrad. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Gyno economy, worth an astonishing 17,015 trillion Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is a breathtaking 736,652 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gynostan isn't what it used to be, Sister Number One's family members carry literal get-out-of-jail-free cards, Gynostan has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world, and serial killers are the country's biggest import. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gynostan's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Goddess Worship.

Gynostan is ranked 117^th in the world and 2^nd in Pontbridge Islands for Highest Economic Output, with 17,015 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
