The Democratic Republic of Northern Glory is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by King MarkMan the elder with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 4.945 billion Northern Gloryians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valley of Golden Halo. The average income tax rate is 73.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Northern Gloryian economy, worth 758 trillion marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 153,381 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

It is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, for the sake of 'public interest' news programs tell viewers how to home-make Sarin gas bombs, the examiners who examine examiners are being examined by examiners, and battlefield gains are quickly lost when enemies don't respect a time-out. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Glory's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Northern Glory is ranked 64,638^th in the world and 3,566^th in The North Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.63 Percentage Of Bribes Refused.
