The United Socialist States of Gemlon is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Premier Kogrof with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, anti-smoking policies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 3.444 billion Gemlonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zednech. The average income tax rate is 93.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Gemlonian economy, worth 417 trillion Chits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,369 Chits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

The navy's new flotilla is gonna be a thrilla, the government prefers to kill off its enemies by peaceful means, burial ceremonies have become as routinised as tax forms, and enemy agents are generally eliminated with extreme prejudice. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gemlon's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Gemlon is ranked 163,065^th in the world and 2,890^th in The East Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 94.1 billion Standard Monetary Units.
