The Confederation of Ganud is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Maksimiyen po Konat with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, feral children, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.204 billion Ganudians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, although Administration, Defense, and Education are also considered important, while Law & Order and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yugar. The average income tax rate is 3.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ganudian economy, worth 691 trillion Mocas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 164,393 Mocas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The acceptance of acupuncture and other alternative therapies has needled the scientific community, the nation's drinking water tends to glow green at night, a traveller who once stubbed a toe on an Air Brancaland flight has been offered asylum, and infantry are nicknamed "mushrooms" because they get fed crap and are left in the dark. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Ganud's national animal is the Yogyujen, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Mesarian Kantu.

Ganud is ranked 57,204^th in the world and 158^th in Europeia for Most Stationary, with 533.39501973808 days.
