The Athenian Chaotic Order of Ghad is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Athena with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate population of 21.001 billion Ghadians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Calxuria. The average income tax rate is 92.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Ghadian economy, worth a remarkable 2,018 trillion Souls a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 96,101 Souls, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast, people boast about their low income on their dating profiles, the new iVote app allows representatives to vote on legislation by launching ill-tempered birds and matching candies, and foreign investment has dropped to a trickle after laws were passed preventing investors from taking their earnings abroad. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ghad's national animal is the Daihan Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ghad is ranked 329,037th in the world and 214th in Karma for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -10.95 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
