The Republic of Glon Glodiope is a huge, safe nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 678 million Diopens enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 8.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Glon Glodiopean economy, worth 35.6 trillion Pilogs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,538 Pilogs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Birth rates have hit an all-time low, evasive politicians don't fail to strongly commit to not committing to a course of non-inaction, Glon Glodiopean novella fans become unusually flustered when thinking about Leader, and the Glon Glodiope Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise. Crime is totally unknown. Glon Glodiope's national animal is the Bighorn Sheep, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Glon Glodiope is ranked 83,417^th in the world and 20^th in Northern Utopia for Highest Drug Use, scoring 76.8 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
