The Warzone States of Kyldellian Gilge is a gargantuan, cultured nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, public floggings, and astonishingly minimal parenting. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 24.134 billion Kyldellians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Law & Order receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thor City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Kyldellian economy, worth an astonishing 19,877 trillion Grams a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 823,643 Grams, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, wheelchair-enabled paratroopers need access ramps to get onto planes but not off them, visitors to Self-Sufficiency National Park who ask for trail maps are handed a pen and a blank sheet of paper, and cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Kyldellian Gilge's national animal is the Monster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Morvolox.

Kyldellian Gilge is ranked 159^th in the world and 20^th in Kylden for Most Cultured, scoring 754 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
