The State of Gambier Brigade is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 31.631 billion Gambier Brigadeans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Law & Order, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.5%.

The thriving Gambier Brigadean economy, worth a remarkable 1,181 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 37,358 betales, with the richest citizens earning 8.4 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, voting is voluntary, and programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours. Crime is a problem. Gambier Brigade's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Gambier Brigade is ranked 201,085^th in the world and 4^th in Jamaica for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 40 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
