The Illegitimate government of Gjorka is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by existential dread with an iron fist, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, enslaved workforce, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.662 billion Gjorkans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. The average income tax rate is 42.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Gjorkan economy, worth a remarkable 2,540 trillion Corruptions a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 122,953 Corruptions, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

All recreational drugs are legal, the alien invasion siren sounds eerily like a UFO, formerly fertile fields are being leached dry of nutrients by intensive farming, and the nation's "surprisingly chill" military is renowned for its horrendous war crimes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gjorka's national animal is the Quebecshirite, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lalo Salamancaism.

Gjorka is ranked 82,944th in the world and 98th in The League for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,179.49 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
