The Glorious Republic of Nueva Gaudria is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Reverend Father Erik with an iron fist, and renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, sprawling nuclear power plants, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.145 billion Gaudrians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Environment, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cielo Alto. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Gaudrian economy, worth a remarkable 4,804 trillion Pentoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 395,582 Pentoes, with the richest citizens earning 7.4 times as much as the poorest.

Reverend Father Erik reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, corporate lawyers are switching careers to the more lucrative field of green politics, prisoners regularly escape detention posing as scarecrows, and Reverend Father Erik's reputation is hard as nails. Crime is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Nueva Gaudria's national animal is the Rabbit, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Gaudrian Pietism.

Nueva Gaudria is ranked 139,242nd in the world and 2,569th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 214.255244821 days.
