The Commonwealth of Geransivia is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.233 billion Geransivians 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 medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Veridia. The average income tax rate is 42.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Geransivian economy, worth 367 trillion Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 113,658 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Travelers praise airports for their endless beige corridors, people stand their fridges back-to-front to benefit from the free heating, glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, and children must be board certified to append "Jr" to their name. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Geransivia's national animal is the Panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Geransivia is ranked 239,514^th in the world and 353^rd in Federation Of Sovereign States for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -2.97 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
