The Republic of Great Patrick is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kurt Markson with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.951 billion Patricians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government prioritizes Healthcare, although Education, Defense, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Herrisbourge. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Patrician economy, worth a remarkable 1,157 trillion Patmarks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,847 Patmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nude art is becoming wildly popular, there is an abondance of ackawi and zartschmelzend in every Patrician grocery store, citizens know never to accept cookies from strangers, and space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space. Crime is totally unknown. Great Patrick's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Great Patrick is ranked 83,742^nd in the world and 4^th in Region Name for Most Patriotic, with 17.03 flags saluted per person per day.
