The Constitutional Monarchy of Goldenson is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Ashael Judah with a fair hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, parental licensing program, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 25.732 billion Goldensonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Burbank. The average income tax rate is 71.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Goldensonian economy, worth a remarkable 3,428 trillion California dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 133,253 California dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Wandering Goldensonians are known for their one-track minds, chipped paint can see a building condemned, sweat stains are proof of political acumen, and blood isn't quite as thick as it used to be. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Goldenson's national animal is the California Grizzly, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Oneness Pentecostalism.

Goldenson is ranked 6,670^th in the world and 1^st in California for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 496.36 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
