The Tiger Worshiping Nation of Glakaw is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Zovo Makan with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.121 billion are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Commerce, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Krolias City. The average income tax rate is 80%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism industry, followed by Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing.

Protests are illegal, Glakaw successfully hosted the Mazeria Olympics, Glakaw is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, and elected officials often serve for decades in a single term. Crime is totally unknown. Glakaw's national animal is the Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Glak.

Glakaw is ranked 44th in Mazeria and 84,254th in the world for Most Influential, scoring 6 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
