The Paramilitary forces of Gurthnok the Crocodile is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 7.63 billion Gurthnok's mens enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.
The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.
The strong Gurthnokian economy, worth 449 trillion WEAPONS a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Tourism. Average income is 58,875 WEAPONS, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 379,459 per year while the poor average 3,690, a ratio of 102 to 1.
Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Gurthnok the Crocodile's national animal is the crocodile, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.
Gurthnok the Crocodile is ranked 34,549th in the world and 1st in Brasilistani territories for Most Stationary, with 1,288.508897576 days.
