The Citizen Republic of Gawdzendia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Alexander Christensen with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, state-planned economy, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 14.563 billion Gawdzendians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Adonia City. The average income tax rate is 53.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gawdzendian economy, worth a remarkable 3,883 trillion GZDS 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, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 amazing 266,656 GZDS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Alexander Christensen, public incontinence is a growing problem amongst the nation's women, Gawdzendia is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, and the government has instituted 'traveller reservations' across the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Gawdzendia's national animal is the White Collar Desk Possum, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lutheranism.

Gawdzendia is ranked 14,677th in the world and 1st in Loosely Antagonistic Nations for Lowest Crime Rates, with 94.07 law-abiding acts per hour.
