The United Socialist State of Gine Caruttiva is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Father Gine with a fair hand, and remarkable for its vat-grown people, otherworldly petting zoo, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.097 billion Gines are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caruttiva. The average income tax rate is 94.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Ginian economy, worth 456 trillion Socials a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 147,362 Socials, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Airplane passenger seat sizes and ticket prices are both first-class, stylish juvenile delinquents are highly overrepresented in fatal motorcycle accidents, getting milk from the local corner store no longer requires donning advanced hiking gear, and 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Gine Caruttiva's radio stations. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gine Caruttiva's national animal is the worker bee, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Ginia Yodlism.

Gine Caruttiva is ranked 10,423^rd in the world and 24^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 10,961.51 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
