The Federal Republic of The Gindsopia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Antón Castillo with a fair hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, smutty television, and digital currency. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.283 billion Gindsopians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Esperanza. The average income tax rate is 62.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gindsopian economy, worth 252 trillion Gondsopia Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 110,620 Gondsopia Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Knitting needles have been banned in the name of public safety, the nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics, party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance", and public projects are synonymous with yawn-inducing conformity. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Gindsopia's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Gindsopia is ranked 30,782^nd in the world and 1,858^th in Balder for Highest Food Quality, scoring 64.27 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
