The 3rd Commonwealth of Gaugswumu-qubu is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by President Amelia Decoteaux with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.21 billion Gaugsuwumun are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Toeuomi-Geffen. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Gaugswumu economy, worth 706 trillion maccas 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 135,674 maccas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lawyers spend as much time preparing their make-up as they do their briefs, the state considers itself the 'third parent' of every child in the nation, extraordinary tribunals try accused financial criminals, and President Amelia Decoteaux's campaign events reach their climax when the celebrity endorsers reveal themselves. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gaugswumu-qubu's national animal is the moth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gaugswumu-qubu is ranked 277,884^th in the world and 10,685^th in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 6,648.05 Standard Monetary Units.
