The Hirsute Primitives of Galileo Seven is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, aversion to nipples, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.303 billion Tribesmens 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 government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taurus II. The average income tax rate is 76.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Galileo Sevenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,369 trillion Golden spears a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 121,200 Golden spears, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Leader spends weekends doing the laundry of foreign leaders, schoolchildren are divided over Leader's "Why Tigers are Cooler than Lions" speech, it's believed that women's brains will overheat if they think for themselves, and Blueriver mercenaries routinely do the army's dirty work. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Galileo Seven's national animal is the bigfoot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Galileo Seven is ranked 245,626th in the world and 89th in Federation of Martian Colonies for Most Beautiful Environments, with 276.51 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
