The Righteous Technocracy of Galered is a mammoth, cultured nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 5.049 billion Galeredians 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 Administration, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Foradrech. The average income tax rate is 66.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Galeredian economy, worth 304 trillion marks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,252 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians who vacation in East Lebatuck lose their jobs upon their return, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?", and prolonged government investigations are a common revenge tactic among spurned significant others. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Galered's national animal is the Griffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Galered is ranked 81,065th in the world and 641st in the Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 66.8 on the Human Development Index.
