The Free Land of The Republic of Galicia is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, triple-decker prams, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.98 billion Republic of Galicians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and Environment are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 52.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Republic of Galician economy, worth 314 trillion Galaicoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 158,872 Galaicoes, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,444,323 per year while the poor average 1,999, a ratio of 722 to 1.
Breast milk lattes are the newest fad among hip urbanites, bars are packed at all hours, photos of picturesque coastal buildings are set against a backdrop of smokestacks and ship hulls, and teens are voting on which C-List pop star will be next to be evicted from the opera house. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. The Republic of Galicia's national animal is the Cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
The Republic of Galicia is ranked 63,133rd in the world and 1,652nd in Lazarus for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 3,462.25 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
