The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rielerstem. The average income tax rate is 73.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Gabeller economy, worth 791 trillion Koko Fruits a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 152,008 Koko Fruits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, mechanics are often exhausted by their work, politicians have literally dirty hands from their extracurricular activities, and mothers are routinely abandoning their children in the name of women's rights.

Gabelas's national animal is the Bird, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.
