The Free Land of Free land of the gecko is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Derry the Dairy Lover with a fair hand, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, unlimited-speed roads, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 5.012 billion Free land of the geckoans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dairy Bottom. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Free land of the geckoan economy, worth 550 trillion Anarchy points a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 109,790 Anarchy points, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 372,842 per year while the poor average 23,851, a ratio of 15.6 to 1.

Economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society, garbage bags floating down the river are churned up by man-made rapids, citizens are bankrupted by injuries to cousins they've never met, and all streets are privately owned toll roads. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Free land of the gecko's national animal is the gecko, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Free land of the gecko is ranked 68,986th in the world and 3,600th in Balder for Most Corrupt Governments, with 26.49 kickbacks per hour.
