The Freehold of Ghardaq is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Archon Vir vos Pikreon with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 13.258 billion Ghardaqis have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rihontazma. The average income tax rate is 55.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Ghardaqi economy, worth a remarkable 1,160 trillion kamas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 87,498 kamas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign governments are looking into weaponizing the infamous Ghardaqi bee, signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars, there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality, and ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ghardaq's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Vezkelios.

Ghardaq is ranked 56,597^th in the world and 13^th in Union of Nationalists for Most Patriotic, with 24.82 flags saluted per person per day.
