The OMG it's the nation of Gladio II is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Gladio with an iron fist, and renowned for its enslaved workforce, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 18.948 billion Gladiators are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gladion. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 71.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Gladiator economy, worth a remarkable 3,190 trillion Golds 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 a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. 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 impressive 168,387 Golds, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

Nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, interviewees for teaching jobs are waterboarded to "reveal undesirable histories", glamping Gladiators won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi, and weird kids who eat bugs are breaking the law. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gladio II's national animal is the Lynx, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Gladion.

Gladio II is ranked 12,765^th in the world and 1,360^th in The North Pacific for Most Influential, scoring 4,015 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
