The Christian States of Gideon is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Archbishop Gabriel VII with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, devout population of 4.388 billion Gidonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jerubbaal. The average income tax rate is 74.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Gideonian economy, worth 283 trillion Shekels a year, is highly specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,517 Shekels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The national guard is mobilized whenever a mother gets separated from her child at the mall, the experimental sculpture "Overtures In Dried Lamb Dung" has been declared a national treasure, 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners, and the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gideon's national animal is the Lamb, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.
Gideon is ranked 116,928th in the world and 39th in Union of Christian Nations for Largest Populations, with 4.39 billion capita.
