The Revolution of Ghed is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ghed Dux with an iron fist, and notable for its complete absence of social welfare and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 24.354 billion Ghedians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, although Education and Environment are also considered important, while Defense and Administration receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gheddia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.

The powerhouse Ghedian economy, worth a remarkable 1,042 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 42,801 Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 176,752 per year while the poor average 6,814, a ratio of 25.9 to 1.

Streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, Ghed has designated Gheddia as its capital city, and Ghed Dux has just been declared ruler of Ghed in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Ghed's national animal is the snake and its national religion is The New Order.

Ghed is ranked 288,842nd in the world and 2nd in Bloodbender Heaven for Lowest Crime Rates, with 34.3 law-abiding acts per hour.
