The High Realm of Golgotho is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Petrovitch with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, infamous sell-swords, and fear of technology. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.242 billion Golgothans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Urbs-Sanguinis-Sancti. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Golgothan economy, worth 847 trillion Nomismata a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 199,733 Nomismata, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

It's rare to find an unchewed pencil, moles make up an incredible part of the upper crust, war vets look after war animals, and a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Golgotho's national animal is the Aquila, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cult of Jyggalag.

Golgotho is ranked 15,208th in the world and 50th in the Outback for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,035.46 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
