The Federation of Goldmandania is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Fearless Leader with a fair hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and lack of airports. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.516 billion Goldmandians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurumus. The average income tax rate is 80.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Goldmandian economy, worth 652 trillion Terminian Cookes a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 100,069 Terminian Cookes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Blood stains the floors of the execution room and the hands of the state, human tissue is grown in vats as a delicacy as well as for transplants, mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found, and political detractors refer to Fearless Leader as 'that Bigtopian puppet'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Goldmandania's national animal is the Turkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Whodaism.

Goldmandania is ranked 221,329^th in the world and 2,313^th in the West Pacific for Most Authoritarian, with 497.09 milliStalins.
