The Kingdom of Galatium is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Adonis II with a fair hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.512 billion Galatians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Syracuse. The average income tax rate is 82.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Galatian economy, worth 747 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,619 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, t-shirts displaying a photo of Adonis II performing the Full-Monty are selling out, 50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, and pocket calculators are seen as status symbols for the ostentatiously wealthy. Crime is totally unknown. Galatium's national animal is the European fallow deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Galatium is ranked 7,535^th in the world and 3^rd in The Kingdom of Great Britain for Nicest Citizens, with 36.94 average smiles per day.
