The State of Going Squirrelly is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 14.037 billion Going Squirrellyians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Healthcare and Welfare also on the agenda, while Environment and International Aid receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The Going Squirrellyian economy, worth 377 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Cheese Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 26,910 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 173,441 per year while the poor average 1,686, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes and the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Going Squirrelly's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Going Squirrelly is ranked 89,306^th in the world and 4^th in Purgatory for Highest Food Quality, scoring 25.15 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
