The Republic of -gvh is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 10 million -gvhians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 38.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The weak -gvhian economy, worth 328 billion drals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Average income is 32,873 drals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -gvh's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

-gvh is ranked 231,377^th in the world and 3,042^nd in The East Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -3.67 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
