The Republic of Gutiterra is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 474 million Gutiterrans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gutilda. The average income tax rate is 38.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Gutiterran economy, worth 46.7 trillion Pesetas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,586 Pesetas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, the government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, and many in Gutiterra are born in the purple. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Gutiterra's national animal is the Suricata, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gutiterra is ranked 31,915^th in the world and 734^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 210.66 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
