The Royal Galatic Empire of Pathelon is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Chesty Puller with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 7.09 billion Pathelonians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Pantheon. The average income tax rate is 73.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Pathelonian economy, worth 945 trillion Fig Newtons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 133,396 Fig Newtons, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

Religious organizations are being forced to leave the country or pay income taxes like everybody else, society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, shelters struggle to keep up with the endless intake of stray animals, and colours are running as Pathelonians take on their own laundry. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pathelon's national animal is the Infantry, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is USMC.

Pathelon is ranked 283,797th in the world and 323rd in Conch Kingdom for Most Stationary, with 5.46487844692 days.
