The Republic of Galbadiana is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Juan Lennon-Mercury with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 7.976 billion Galbadianans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 78.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Galbadianan economy, worth 600 trillion Johnsons a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,273 Johnsons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are arrested for naturally producing proteins, billions of Johnsons are spent to take high-quality photos of the Unicorn Nebula, the meaning of life was recently discovered in the patch notes for Version 1.42, and abattoirs are struggling with the directive to 'wait until the animal dies of a ripe old age'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Galbadiana's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Galbadiana is ranked 242,047^th in the world and 4,874^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -130.78 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
