	The '''Social Democracy of Gardavasque''', commonly called '''Gardavasque''', is a Federal Multiparty Democratic Republic in the International Democratic Union, on the south central portion of the continent of ~~Hespia~~. Gardavasque is famed for its stunningly beautiful environment rich in biodiversity, empathic population, and progressive civil rights policies. It holds strong historical, cultural, and linguistic ties with neighboring nations of The Lavender Country (to the north), Great Tequila Island (south), Azaffran (west), and Ecclesiastical Dominions (to the east). Gardavasque is an active member of the World Assembly, Security Council, and International Democratic Union States' Assembly and is signatory to numerous environmental and human rights treaties. The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. The "frighteningly efficient" Gardavascan economy, worth 145 trillion Yescas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 99,890 Yescas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest. Gardavasque has a keen scientific interest in space; its Space Program (SPG) officially launched in 1960 and is currently developing a 100-year off-world colonization project.

	Gardavasque covers 2,780,400 km² of environmentally-stunning landscapes rich in natural resources and abundant in biodiversity. Approximately 30% of its territory has been designated Federally and Provincially-protected Wildland Reserves, National Parks, and Autonomous Tribal Lands with limited capacity for development in these areas. Gardavasque is strategically located in south central ~~Hespia~~ along the northwest coast of the Deep Blue Sea and the southwest coast of the Vespucci Channel, making it ideally situated for maritime and overland trade. For being a relatively medium-sized country, Gardavasque has an astonishing range of biodiversity and dramatically varied ecosystems; nearly every type of climate except polar and tundra can be found within the country. The northern border of Gardavasque reaches to the Hallelujah Mountains, the highest mountain range in the region, with nearly a hundred peaks remaining snow capped year round. The famous Emerald Forest in Eastern Gardavasque, contains approximately 25% of the last remaining rainforests in ~~Hespia~~ as well as some of the the last reserves of free-roaming dinosaurs in the world. The Deep Blue Sea along Gardavasque's southern coast, is famed for its nearly perfect weather year-round, pristine beaches, and excellent surfing conditions. The Calescent Desert on the west, the most sparsely-populated part of the country. Western Gardavasque is rich in mineral resources, wildflower blooms, and contains extensive underground caverns which have been a treasure of rare fossils and scientific study.
