The Osiris Lands of Gent Pop is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Martin Williams with an even hand, and notable for its public floggings, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 11.8 billion Gent Popians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kangaroo Town. The average income tax rate is 75.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Gent Popian economy, worth a remarkable 3,092 trillion Popular Monies a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 262,067 Popular Monies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Welfare funding has recently gone through the roof, spies caught red-handed are served cocktails on their first-class flights home, sales of pregnancy testing kits are booming, and going on a diet invalidates your passport. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gent Pop's national animal is the Kangaroo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Popular Kangaroo Worship.

Gent Pop is ranked 2,325^th in the world and 69^th in Balder for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 14,888.25 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
