The Retcon of Gallifrey Trenzalore is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by the Lord High President with an iron fist, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, vat-grown people, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 20.652 billion Gallifrean Trenzaloreans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Panopticon. The average income tax rate is 97.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Gallifrean Trenzalorean economy, worth a remarkable 6,101 trillion Pandaks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Retail, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 295,458 Pandaks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cigarettes are dead-cheap, only the brainiest citizens become academics, political shows are fit for purpose, and hardline members of the Red Bloc consider the Lord High President a filthy revisionist traitor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gallifrey Trenzalore's national animal is the Wifferdill, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is the Faction Paradox.

Gallifrey Trenzalore is ranked 289,423rd in the world and 22nd in The Doctor Who Universe for Safest, scoring 3.81 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
