The State of Wise Geek is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its complete lack of public education and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 21.376 billion Wise Geekians 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, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Law & Order, with Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.1%.

The powerhouse Wise Geekian economy, worth a remarkable 1,107 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology. Average income is 51,820 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 183,426 per year while the poor average 10,570, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the government is avowedly atheist, voting is voluntary, and Wise Geek has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Wise Geek's national animal is the deer.

Wise Geek is ranked 261,560^th in the world and 595^th in 0000 for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.72 kickbacks per hour.
