The Connected Dimensions of Gaila is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Bill DeWhall with a fair hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.225 billion Gailans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Deci. The average income tax rate is 69.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Gailan economy, worth 510 trillion Gailan Knas a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 97,730 Gailan Knas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life, government reports are now used to teach toddlers to read, and young and brooding teens are welcomed with open arms to the Dogwarts School of Strangeness and Sorcery. Crime is totally unknown. Gaila's national animal is the Gailan Parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Gaila is ranked 28,770th in the world and 592nd in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,549.03 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
