The Grandes' Duchy of Giscuambourg is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by HRH the Grande Duke Deovad III with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 6.659 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Equality, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Giscuambourg City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Invading armies are given hard glares for their cheek, schoolchildren have twice-weekly sex education classes, small businesses are gobbled up almost daily by corporate giants, and the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Giscuambourg's national animal is the Belette Giscuambourgeoise, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Giscuambourger dollar.

Giscuambourg is ranked 47th in Gay and 19,929th in the world for Healthiest Citizens, with 7 Standard Bananas Ingested per capita per day.
