The Commonwealth of Gandenia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Sovereign Nonta Ytbaum with an even hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.253 billion Gandenians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ganden. The average income tax rate is 79.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Gandenian economy, worth 839 trillion Birrhams a year, is dominated by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 101,673 Birrhams, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Travelers often bring empty plastic bottles on Air Gandenia flights to avoid the pay lavatories, the only women behind bars are barmaids, students do more community service than homework, and genetic research is temporarily tied up in government red tape. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gandenia's national animal is the Emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gandenia is ranked 136,767th in the world and 189th in Forest for Most Stationary, with 227.47601413748 days.
