The Queendom of Galactics Union is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 489 million Galactics Unionians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Public Transport are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.

The strong Galactics Unionian economy, worth 24.3 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Pizza Delivery, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 49,684 Dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 320,218 per year while the poor average 3,114, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Galactics Union's national animal is the Cow, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Galactics Union is ranked 261,294^th in the world and 52^nd in The Galactics Union for Largest Black Market, with 101 billion Standard Monetary Units.
