The Republic of Gennaretia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Janus Romanus with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.29 billion Free Liberal Italians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roma Libera. The average income tax rate is 9.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Gennaretian economy, worth 866 trillion Sestertiuses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 201,869 Sestertiuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

There's no cure or sympathy for the common cold, Free Liberal Italians caught jaywalking often have their houses seized by the police, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, and visions of giant pink Tigers are a common side effect after Free Liberal Italians eat their meals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Gennaretia's national animal is the Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Gennaretia is ranked 68,250th in the world and 1,491st in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.35 law-abiding acts per hour.
