The Union of The Union of The Union of Galaxies is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Gracious the Great with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 9.009 billion Galactians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saturnia. The average income tax rate is 25.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Galactian economy, worth a remarkable 1,358 trillion Euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 150,830 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The media seems excessively interested in what Gracious the Great is wearing this season, The Union of Galaxies successfully hosted the Balder Olympics, the Saturnia Women's Prison Choir now has a baritone section, and raver DJ XStacy holds multiple medical degrees in chillaxing. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Union of Galaxies's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Union of Galaxies is ranked 324,616^th in the world and 17,744^th in Balder for Safest, scoring 5.06 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
