The Grand Duchy of Rhutan is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Gundras IV the Great with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, public floggings, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 5.285 billion Rhutanese are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gandranė. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Rhutanese economy, worth 645 trillion Euros a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 122,158 Euros, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 999,068 per year while the poor average 3,200, a ratio of 312 to 1.

It is a silent spring in Rhutan, it's not just poseurs who wear oversized sound-cancelling headphones as they walk the city streets, Gandranė has restaurants serving every meat from aardvark to zebra, and drivers regularly pull over for nonexistent police cars. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. Rhutan's national animal is the Capitalist Stork, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Rhutan is ranked 13,693rd in the world and 1st in Frogster for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,620.5 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
