The Empire of Galaxy Hazelwood is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 8.89 billion Galaxy Hazelwoodians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 9.1%.

The strong Galaxy Hazelwoodian economy, worth 448 trillion Rels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. Average income is 50,432 Rels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Galaxy Hazelwood's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Galaxy Hazelwood is ranked 241,597^th in the world and 1,280^th in Europe for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 103.12 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
