The Free Land of Goonshu is a fledgling, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The compassionate population of 6 million Goonshuans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 21.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Goonshuan economy, worth 288 billion Gooncoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 48,091 Gooncoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

When it comes to flavor there's no gain without pain, one complaint of Goonshu's new periodic table is it's easy to confuse fearlessleaderium with gloriousleaderium, prominent cultural symbols are featured on the backs of cereal boxes, and the running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Goonshu's national animal is the Pharoh, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Goonshu is ranked 251,853^rd in the world and 3,650^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 869.92 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
