The Kingdom of Galabadro is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King Edmund III with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, pith helmet sales, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.669 billion Galabadroans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Iosaphat. The average income tax rate is 78.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Galabadroan economy, worth 312 trillion Denarii a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,134 Denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

School uniforms are compulsory, pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall, intellectual snobbery has the cognoscenti sneering at anyone who doesn't have an opinion on the semiological drift of Umberto Eco's works, and politicians ponder for at least a minute when asked if they would like sugar in their tea. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Galabadro's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Galabadro is ranked 53,751^st in the world and 56^th in Fifth Empire for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 3,656.86 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
