The Republic of Geraldine Jones is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its soft-spoken computers, public floggings, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 21.518 billion Geraldine Jonesians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.6%.

The powerhouse Geraldine Jonesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,986 trillion $$s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 92,327 $$s, with the richest citizens earning 9.9 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign musicians that Leader dislikes are turned away at the border, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', factories place endangered birds in their rafters in pursuit of government protections, and aggravated apostrophe abusers are admonished and assaulted. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Geraldine Jones's national animal is the Dolly Varden, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Geraldine Jones is ranked 86,814th in the world and 1st in Hispaniola for Most Stationary, with 528.0693495354 days.
