The Community of Gundeldingen is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Granit Xhepjeto with an even hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, complete absence of social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 3.645 billion Gundelianers enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gundeli. The average income tax rate is 75.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Gundeldingenian economy, worth 271 trillion Franaks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Cheese Exports. Average income is 74,379 Franaks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The parliament building has installed a revolving door, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, funerals are often rudely interrupted by juggling clowns shouting for volunteers from the audience, and the annual budget is heralded by the Treasury Minister donning a fake plastic mustache and giant star-shaped glasses. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gundeldingen's national animal is the Unterhund, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gundeldingen is ranked 274,093^rd in the world and 274^th in Conch Kingdom for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -9.8 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
