The Golden Company Warlord of Gullerike is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 9.531 billion Gullerikeans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The strong Gullerikean economy, worth 641 trillion Wergelds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 67,310 Wergelds, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 435,712 per year while the poor average 4,169, a ratio of 104 to 1.

The diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, military spending is on the increase, and the tenet of free speech is held dear. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Gullerike's national animal is the Golden Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Gullerike is ranked 110,257^th in the world and 1^st in The Golden Company for Highest Average Incomes, with 67,310.75 Standard Monetary Units.
