The State of Galmudug is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 28.405 billion Galmudugians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.

The very strong Galmudugian economy, worth 990 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 34,854 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 236,965 per year while the poor average 1,872, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, Galmudug has designated Westminster as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Galmudug in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Galmudug's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Galmudug is ranked 13,098^th in the world and 1^st in Sanaa for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 7,587.28 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
