The Most Serene Republic of Gallian Fifth Republic is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Henriette Rolande de Clostermann with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 8.486 billion Gallians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 65.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Gallian economy, worth 541 trillion Euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 63,820 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, farmers have taken to hunting billionaires who encroach on their land, and the government props up questionable pizza establishments in the name of health. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gallian Fifth Republic's national animal is the Gallic rooster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gallian Fifth Republic is ranked 241,875^th in the world and 10^th in SW Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -5.31 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
