The Democratic Republic of Gandoor is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Prime Minister Nikolai Olanovich Semenov with a fair hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 20.566 billion Gandoorese hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, with Industry, Social Policy, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gandoor City. The average income tax rate is 92.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gandoorese economy, worth a remarkable 4,590 trillion gdyns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an amazing 223,196 gdyns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Costumed characters wearing Maxtopian Grass leaves remind citizens that the government now sells the green stuff, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, lifelong celibates are surprised to receive government-issue condoms in the post, and tax-payers are funding ever more extravagant movie projects. Crime is totally unknown. Gandoor's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gandoor is ranked 151,531^st in the world and 16^th in Osakaland for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -12.88 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
