The Commonwealth of Genfernation is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kanzler Helmut Rotkohl with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, pith helmet sales, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 1.553 billion Genfers are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Schweinshaxe. The average income tax rate is 52.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Genfernian economy, worth 211 trillion Knoedels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 136,356 Knoedels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The government is a clear-cut case of tyranny by majority, the study of medicine is popular throughout Genfernation, fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, and the government has started a campaign to crack down on road rage and encourage alternate means of commuting. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Genfernation's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Genfernation is ranked 189,759^th in the world and 38^th in Deutschland for Largest Populations, with 1.55 billion capita.
