The Lands of Gypsy Rover is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 8.847 billion Gypsy Roverians 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 minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The strong Gypsy Roverian economy, worth 422 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 47,715 dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 307,533 per year while the poor average 2,991, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Harry Potter books are banned, organ donation is compulsory, surveillance cameras are banned, and the new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?". Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Gypsy Rover's national animal is the Owl, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Gypsy Rover is ranked 265,284^th in the world and 51^st in Gypsy Lands for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 784.93 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
