The Kingdom of Guanan is a large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 101 million Guananians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.4%.

The strong Guananian economy, worth 5.54 trillion knans a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 54,833 knans, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 355,462 per year while the poor average 3,382, a ratio of 105 to 1.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, bands of adventurers rove the countryside searching for monsters, and the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Guanan's national animal is the Mountain wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Guanan is ranked 289,338^th in the world and 10^th in Sentry for Most Developed, scoring 51.03 on the Human Development Index.
