The Grand State of Gilmic is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Moktan Shazmir with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, parental licensing program, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.928 billion Gilmicians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Panthalassa. The average income tax rate is 84.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gilmician economy, worth 650 trillion Kurums a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 165,550 Kurums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's no cure or sympathy for the common cold, the citizenship exam requires years of study to actually pass, diplomats expel enough hot air to cause forest fires, and entomologists flock to Panthalassa for its remarkable gadfly population. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gilmic's national animal is the Saber tooth tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.

Gilmic is ranked 9,611^th in the world and 3^rd in Aeternas for Lowest Crime Rates, with 105.68 law-abiding acts per hour.
