The Indochina Confederation of The Guru is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Chancellor Hàn Vĩnh Luân with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, digital currency, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, hard-working population of 16.625 billion Guruians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ho chi minh City. The average income tax rate is 60.2%.

The powerhouse Guruan economy, worth a remarkable 1,450 trillion Yen a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Tourism. Average income is 87,238 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The road to capitalism has proved an epic drama of adventure and exploration, scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied Tiger, friendly fire incidents usually result in severe burns, and frat-house partying has become the national pastime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Guru's national animal is the Tiger.

The Guru is ranked 166,788^th in the world and 23^rd in New World Union for Most Patriotic, with 7.51 flags saluted per person per day.
