The Republic of Empire of Gora is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Great Garzo with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, pith helmet sales, and smutty television. The compassionate, devout population of 13.261 billion Gorans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Goventry. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Goran economy, worth a remarkable 1,689 trillion Golins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 127,367 Golins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Televisions are often seized to pay for overdue television license fees, Great Garzo's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies, code enforcement officers circle wealthy Gorans like vultures, and treaties are taken to be mere rules of thumb. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Empire of Gora's national animal is the Great Goran Giant Tortoise, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Empire of Gora is ranked 109,598^th in the world and 40^th in The Hole To Hide In for Most Authoritarian, with 904.24 milliStalins.
