The Empire of Far Gisattoo is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.31 billion Far Gisattooans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.4%.

The very strong Far Gisattooan economy, worth 459 trillion marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 55,235 marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 168,732 per year while the poor average 14,014, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes and women who can do math in their head are burned for witchcraft. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Far Gisattoo's national animal is the lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Far Gisattoo is ranked 288,523^rd in the world and 15,195^th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 53.63 law-abiding acts per hour.
