The Fish Kingdom of Glamorous is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Missy with an iron fist, and notable for its teetotalling pirates, prohibition of alcohol, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.185 billion Glamorousians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gorgeous. The average income tax rate is 49.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Glamorousian economy, worth 322 trillion Glamorous Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 101,331 Glamorous Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Public urination is on the increase, Glamorousians wonder "if a tree falls in the woods with no credible witnesses, who wants to know?", politicians spend a lot of time hanging around kids' playgrounds, and colonels love the smell of trash in the morning. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Glamorous's national animal is the Poodle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Adelian.

Glamorous is ranked 326,297th in the world and 17th in Pilot for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -13.39 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
