The Fifth Doctor of Pete Davison is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by The Fifth Doctor with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of prisons, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.261 billion Gallifreyans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eye of Orion. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.2%.

The all-consuming Gallifreyan economy, worth 676 trillion celeries a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 93,127 celeries, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.

Ritual mummification is making a comeback, claims adjusters are uselessly vague, eminent domain has been abolished, and politicians' financial records are locked up tighter than the nation's celery reserves. Crime is almost non-existent. Pete Davison's national animal is the terileptil, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Science.

Pete Davison is ranked 53,047th in the world and 11th in The Doctors for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,887.24 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
