The Protectorate of Gand is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 23.232 billion Gandians enjoy great social freedoms and frequent elections, where the majority of the populace regularly votes to increase its benefits at the expense of various hapless minorities.
The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Environment, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 64.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but stagnant Gandian economy, worth 413 trillion Euros 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 slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Cheese Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, 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 17,800 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gand's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Gand is ranked 2,573rd in the world and 44th in The East Pacific for Most Stationary, with 3,890.70584328 days.
