The Dictatorship of George Patton is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by General Patton with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 7.031 billion Pattonians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Camp Pendelton. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.

The frighteningly efficient George Pattonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,502 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 213,767 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Third party candidates are now gaining some representation in Parliament, escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Camp Pendelton, and it's not mass murder when the government does it. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. George Patton's national animal is the Bald Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is War.

George Patton is ranked 10,016th in the world and 562nd in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 119 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
