The Hellenic Kingdom of Gastravon is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Tyrone Slyferius with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, complete lack of prisons, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 6.709 billion Gastravonians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Orongkungkrae'. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Gastravonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,870 trillion Ilunns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 278,763 Ilunns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

All tariffs have been abolished, citizens who plan overseas vacations are barred from running for political office, lifelong celibates are surprised to receive government-issue condoms in the post, and the government pours millions of Ilunns into rehabilitation programs annually. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Gastravon's national animal is the Gastravonian Sapphire Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Makunsten.

Gastravon is ranked 489^th in the world and 16^th in the South Pacific for Most Efficient Economies, scoring 101.36 on the Krugman-Greenspan Business Outlook Index.
