The Federal Republic of Galvaleon is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Vincent Souza with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed population of 1.016 billion Galvaleonians 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, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 56.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Galvaleonian economy, worth 81.4 trillion Divitiaes a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,159 Divitiaes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Shivering secretaries type letters under torrential downpours in open-roof offices, patriotic citizens chant "there's only one Galvaleon" at foreigners, birth rates have hit an all-time low, and Galvaleonian tourists are banned from many nations due to their tendency to randomly explode. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Galvaleon's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Galvaleon is ranked 195,562nd in the world and 3,548th in The North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 53.36672278972 days.
