The Revolution of Ghed is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Ghed Dux with an iron fist, and notable for its complete absence of social welfare and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 24.435 billion Ghedians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Education and Environment also on the agenda, while Healthcare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gheddia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.

The powerhouse Ghedian economy, worth a remarkable 1,045 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 42,801 Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 176,752 per year while the poor average 6,814, a ratio of 25.9 to 1.

Streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, Ghed has designated Gheddia as its capital city, and Ghed Dux has just been declared ruler of Ghed in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Ghed's national animal is the snake and its national religion is The New Order.

Ghed is ranked 211,760th in the world and 2nd in Bloodbender Heaven for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -4.24 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
