The Benevolent Empire of Galali is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Scrooge McDuck with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed population of 5.385 billion Galatians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arkdon. The average income tax rate is 73.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Galalian economy, worth 656 trillion Dollarydoos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 121,939 Dollarydoos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance", it is popularly believed that "cheese every day keeps disaster away", embarrassed police officers wear spandex and carry net guns, and the new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Galali's national animal is the Platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Deism.

Galali is ranked 8,984^th in the world and 19^th in The Free Nations Region for Most Armed, with 9.54 Weapons Per Person.
