The United People's Herd of Goat Republic is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Eros Faelix Kazeno with an iron fist, and remarkable for its avant-garde cinema, sprawling nuclear power plants, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.781 billion Goatians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Katsika. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Goatian economy, worth a remarkable 1,129 trillion Guldbocks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 298,813 Guldbocks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation', sushi just hasn't been the same since salmon went extinct overnight, the citizenship exam requires years of study to actually pass, and the fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Goat Republic's national animal is the Goat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Vast Personality Cult of the Leader.

Goat Republic is ranked 130,735^th in the world and 441^st in 10000 Islands for Largest Populations, with 3.78 billion capita.
