The Realm of Gildori is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its vat-grown people, ubiquitous missile silos, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed population of 1.377 billion Gildorians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asterion. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Gildorian economy, worth 180 trillion Gilds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 130,871 Gilds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Lobbyists are trying to convince government to recategorize most natural disasters as "non-critical naturogenic inconveniences", photographers have to apply for a license to photograph Leader, Gildori's first free elections in recent memory have been successfully concluded, and eminent domain has been abolished. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gildori's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Gildism.

Gildori is ranked 288,192nd in the world and 1,324th in Europe for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 47.45 Workforce Participation Rate.
