The OMG it's the nation of Gladio II is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Gladio with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, compulsory military service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 22.682 billion Gladiators 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gladion. The average income tax rate is 59.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Gladiator economy, worth a remarkable 5,149 trillion Golds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 227,032 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.
Mountain rescuers refer to their new gear as the 'watchamacallits' and 'thingymabobs', tabloids coo over Gladio's expected child, billions of Golds are being blown on orbital weapons development, and citizens volunteer for tax audits to avoid the 80-page Practical Assessment Survey Tool On Religions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gladio II's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Gladion.
Gladio II is ranked 282,731st in the world and 710th in NationStates for Most Primitive, scoring -387.83 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
