The Republic of Goyang is a tiny, pleasant nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 9 million Goyangians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 16.6%.

The strong Goyangian economy, worth 439 billion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is 48,864 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, and organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region. Crime is moderate. Goyang's national animal is the dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Goyang is ranked 109,144^th in the world and 6^th in Korea for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 1,760.75 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
