The Madokadom of Gurkland is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Mitriel Direnni with a fair hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, daily referendums, and spontaneously combusting cars. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 26.243 billion Gurklandians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Education, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Law & Order are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cremalodia. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Gurklandian economy, worth an astonishing 13,165 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 a breathtaking 501,674 Freigelds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The government is spending serious cheddar protecting sewer rats, the numbers on the latest spending report are reaching stellar levels, recognised healthcare professionals treat diabetes with a grain of sugar in a barrel of water, and referenda are held for every conceivable government action. 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 75,670^th in the world and 9^th in The Embassy for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 3,797.82 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
