The Allied States of The Grand Legion is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Primarch Eirc Daniels with an iron fist, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 25.462 billion Legionnaires 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dallas. The average income tax rate is 88.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Legionnaire economy, worth a remarkable 3,421 trillion Grands a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 134,370 Grands, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Anyone dissenting from the state ideology is declared "mentally ill" and whisked away in a straitjacket, flogging is all the rage, TGL-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, and tourists flock to see the giant stone carvings of The Grand Legion's historical leaders at Mount Rushless. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Grand Legion's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Millitarism.

The Grand Legion is ranked 12,069th in the world and 2nd in Union of Republics for Lowest Crime Rates, with 97.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
