The Archduchy of Gothudhessen is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Archduke Rudolf Klanzburtt VII with a fair hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, unlimited-speed roads, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.668 billion Gothudhessenians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Borveina. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.6%.

The powerhouse Gothudhessenian economy, worth 407 trillion Juegermarks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 87,216 Juegermarks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 306,893 per year while the poor average 17,953, a ratio of 17.1 to 1.

Children who ask questions are told to conduct double-blinded studies, the poor are forced into bankruptcy by their energy bills, demand for gourmet white truffles is on the rise, and citizens are tied down and forced to watch educational videos on empathy. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gothudhessen's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cyanism.

Gothudhessen is ranked 16,642^nd in the world and 35^th in Aceon for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 73,610.98 Standard Monetary Units.
