The Tea Milk Allies of The Union of Galaxies is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Gracious the Great with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, infamous sell-swords, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.197 billion Galactians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saturnia. The average income tax rate is 9.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Galactian economy, worth 584 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 139,312 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries, late night adverts for breast milk co-ops regularly win pornography industry awards, teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, and welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Union of Galaxies's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Union of Galaxies is ranked 275,102^nd in the world and 5,714^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -281.24 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
