The Kingdom of Gwarkos is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its unlimited-speed roads, keen interest in outer space, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 264 million Gwarkosians, 251 million of whom are zombies, 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 68.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Gwarkosian economy, worth 217 trillion coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 118,035 coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Leader is refusing to make decisions until the Moon is out of Capricorn, phone taps are frequently carried out by the police, the passport doubles as a birth certificate, and athletes are renowned for being the best at maths. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gwarkos's national animal is the hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Gwarkos is ranked 266,090^th in the world and 51^st in Anaia for Nudest, with 55.25 cheeks per square mile.
