The Republic of Geladius is a titanic, cultured nation, notable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 17.239 billion Geladiusians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 74.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Geladiusian economy, worth 505 trillion geladiums a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is 29,298 geladiums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Harry Potter books are banned, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and glamping Geladiusians won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Geladius's national animal is the green jungle fowl, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Geladius is ranked 270,326th in the world and 13th in Island for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.37 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
