The Pantheon of Gold Sands is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Red with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate population of 4.602 billion Goldens are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elysium. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Golden economy, worth 594 trillion Dobrãoes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 129,144 Dobrãoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

More sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, the government only invests in infrastructure after a natural disaster, and preschools put children down for naps with milk, cookies, and a gruesome story of vengeance. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gold Sands's national animal is the Kraken, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Piracy.

Gold Sands is ranked 279,971^st in the world and 10,645^th in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -340.06 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
