The Free Land of Gennadius-Khandroma is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by DK Assasin Indy with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.852 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gennadius. The average income tax rate is 69%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism industry, followed by Gambling and Trout Farming.

Anti-government web sites are springing up, Gennadius-Khandroma's famous countrysides are shrouded by wind farms, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Gennadius Times is sold out, and Gennadius-Khandroma-made cars tend to catch fire in people's driveways. Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gennadius-Khandroma's national animal is the neo-cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is mystical connectivism, and its currency is the dream.

Gennadius-Khandroma is ranked 370th in Europe and 86,881st in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -3 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
