The Federation of Ghufar is a small, genial nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and ban on automobiles. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 32 million Ghufaris are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 50.0%.

The Ghufari economy, worth 1.50 trillion Riyals a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 46,918 Riyals, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Cars are banned, surveillance cameras are banned, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ghufar's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ghufar is ranked 155,709^th in the world and 2^nd in The Union of the Worlds Nations for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring zero on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
