The People's Beautiful Republic of Land of the Goats is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.725 billion Land of the Goatsians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and International Aid. The average income tax rate is 19.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Land of the Goatsian economy, worth 126 trillion Raiments a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 46,289 Raiments, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Grinning punters say that casino roulette is the greatest high that life has to offer, belief that Leader is a lizard-person from outer space has reached an all-time high, morale within the seismologist community has hit rock bottom, and procrastination is a national sport.

Land of the Goats is ranked 117,995^th in the world and 1^st in Peace Pact for Most Cultured, scoring 66 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
