The Corporate Principality of Galaad is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Lord-Oligarch Yevgeny Pekkonen with an even hand, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, frequent executions, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, devout population of 9.931 billion Galaadians are prohibited from doing almost everything but make sure no one in government gets away with anything either.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ghedi Preim - Night City Area. The average income tax rate is 75.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Galaadian economy, worth a remarkable 1,602 trillion Portofoliums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 161,327 Portofoliums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Acknowledgement of minority groups is usually a Trojan horse, small businesses are gobbled up almost daily by corporate giants, Blueriver mercenaries routinely do the army's dirty work, and conscientious objectors are hanged as traitors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Galaad's national animal is the Xenomorph, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Galaadic Mysticism.

Galaad is ranked 12,874^th in the world and 698^th in Lazarus for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 5,581.77 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
