The Furry Friends of Gardyn is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Furry Freddy with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, suspicion of poets, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 22.47 billion Gardynians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Patience. The average income tax rate is 77.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Gardynian economy, worth 319 trillion Euros 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 dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Tourism, and Gambling. Average income is 14,235 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Students abandon classrooms for online education, Furryism has been named as Gardyn's national religion, Furry Freddy has just been declared ruler of Gardyn in an international press conference, and Gardyn has designated Patience as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gardyn's national animal is the frog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Furryism.

Gardyn is ranked 47,899^th in the world and 3^rd in Furry Antifascist Alliance for Safest, scoring 103.61 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
