The Grand Duchy of Ganziar is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Bustchia with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.583 billion Ganzians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amylta. The average income tax rate is 72.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ganziarian economy, worth 588 trillion Ganzian dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,385 Ganzian dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Diplomacy is a foreign concept to Ganzians, the nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, and murderers with law degrees can be seen swinging the gavel in courts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ganziar's national animal is the Ganzian dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ganziar is ranked 49,216th in the world and 2,832nd in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 3,969.97 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
