The Intergalactic Bounty Hunters of The Freakin Guardians of the Galaxy is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Inigo Montoya with an iron fist, and notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, public floggings, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.547 billion Guardians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lathin. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Guardian economy, worth a remarkable 1,366 trillion guardiums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 246,364 guardiums, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,371,198 per year while the poor average 22,144, a ratio of 61.9 to 1.

The strong are acquitted and the weak are trampled in trial by an anthropomorphic raccoon, glassy-eyed Guardian wives lifelessly chant "I love you" on command, hit TV show 'The eXecution Factor' is a critical success, and the first sword of The Freakin Guardians of the Galaxy does not run. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Freakin Guardians of the Galaxy's national animal is the anthropomorphic raccoon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Faxovism.

The Freakin Guardians of the Galaxy is ranked 24,333rd in the world and 51st in Karma for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 7,835.28 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
