The Kingdom of Goose and Duck is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Goose with an iron fist, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, parental licensing program, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.665 billion Goose and Duckians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Industry, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Social Policy and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mordor. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Goose and Duckian economy, worth 293 trillion Geeses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 109,964 Geeses, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 780,957 per year while the poor average 5,142, a ratio of 151 to 1.

Prisoners pray grey skies are gonna clear up, Goosism has been named as Goose and Duck's national religion, the aphorism "there's no need to argue" has been dismissed by Goose and Duckians, and destitute AIs lurk around online bulletin boards begging for spare Geeses. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Goose and Duck's national animal is the Goose, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Goosism.

Goose and Duck is ranked 290,190th in the world and 7,172nd in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 30.52 law-abiding acts per hour.
