The Democratic Republic of Gandoor is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Prime Minister Park Sang-Hee with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 22.224 billion Gandoorese hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, with Industry and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gandoor City. The average income tax rate is 32.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gandoorese economy, worth a remarkable 4,967 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 223,505 gdyns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Hospitals are amongst the best-funded in the region, economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year, citizens are regularly found digging for treasure in their gardens, and anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper. Crime is totally unknown. Gandoor's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gandoor is ranked 1,365^th in the world and 1^st in Osakaland for Most Cultured, scoring 270 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
