The Oppressive Conservatives of Gurbundy is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions, enslaved workforce, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 29.205 billion Gurbundyians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The thriving Gurbundyian economy, worth a remarkable 4,041 trillion franks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is an impressive 138,373 franks, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 810,968 per year while the poor average 11,049, a ratio of 73.4 to 1.

Euthanasia is illegal, suppression of pro-democracy protests is a daily occurrence, adultery has been made a capital offence, and the nation's drinking water tends to glow green at night. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Gurbundy's national animal is the wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Gurbundy is ranked 33,031st in the world and 2,103rd in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 80.99 law-abiding acts per hour.
