The Grand Principality of Monarchial Gibraltar is a huge, socially progressive nation, ruled by Prince Hobbs with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, infamous sell-swords, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 809 million Sovereign Nobles are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Emwell. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 51.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Noble Gibraltan economy, worth 114 trillion Sovereign Crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 141,074 Sovereign Crowns, with the richest citizens earning 6.4 times as much as the poorest.

Slavery has been abolished, the nightly news reports prosaically on the government blindly throwing money at despotic kidnappers, former slave-owners hope there are no hard feelings when they apply for jobs from their erstwhile charges, and a new Brasilistani government has become a daily report on the main evening news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Monarchial Gibraltar's national animal is the Jaguar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Monarchial Gibraltar is ranked 42,467th in the world and 955th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 76.84 law-abiding acts per hour.
