The Federation of Gorvania is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Yuriy Yaroshenko with a fair hand, and remarkable for its closed borders, otherworldly petting zoo, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 19.178 billion Gorvans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anzhelypol. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Gorvanian economy, worth an astonishing 13,769 trillion hrovodnias a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is a breathtaking 717,999 hrovodnias, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 6,681,194 per year while the poor average 7,018, a ratio of 951 to 1.

Songwriters compete to see who can come up with the most blasphemous lyrics, constituents prefer a carrot and boomstick approach to dealing with politicians, more and more people are signing up for the government party, and the nation is in perpetual campaign mode. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gorvania's national animal is the pig, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christian Orthodox.

Gorvania is ranked 42,100th in the world and 598th in the Rejected Realms for Most Stationary, with 1,048.26495411 days.
