The OMG it's the nation of Gladio II is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Gladio with an iron fist, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, frequent executions, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 22.46 billion Gladiators are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gladion. The average income tax rate is 60.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Gladiator economy, worth a remarkable 5,102 trillion Golds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 227,198 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Most believe it doesn't hurt to embrace free trade, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, and it is still not known if the commander in chief outranks the supreme commander. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gladio II's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Gladion.

Gladio II is ranked 5,087th in the world and 45th in NationStates for Lowest Crime Rates, with 115.76 law-abiding acts per hour.
