The Gilde of Gald is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Jan Breydel with a fair hand, and renowned for its burgeoning gnat population. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 24.783 billion Galdians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brugge. The average income tax rate is 30.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Galdian economy, worth 977 trillion Gilders a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,428 Gilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Katholiek has been named as Gald's national religion, Jan Breydel has just been declared ruler of Gald in an international press conference, Gald has designated Brugge as its capital city, and the bum of Jan Breydel has been voted the most recognisable in Gald. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gald's national animal is the gnat and its national religion is katholiek.

Gald is ranked 268,445^th in the world and 115^th in belgium for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.7 kickbacks per hour.
