The Democratic Technomancy of Gurkland is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Mitriel Direnni with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 21.495 billion Gurklandians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sheoth. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Gurklandian economy, worth a remarkable 8,937 trillion Freigelds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 415,779 Freigelds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Exceptionally healthy police officers can sprint after crooks for hours on end, mandatory daycare is provided by the government, supermarkets must refund spoilt milk even six months after the sale, and industry tycoons rarely hide their misdeeds due to the government's habit of bailing them out. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Gurkland's national animal is the Pegasus, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Madokaism.

Gurkland is ranked 3,589^th in the world and 5^th in Ambition for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 13,200.96 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
