The Tea Milk Allies of The Union of Galaxies is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Gracious the Great with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.29 billion Galactians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saturnia. The average income tax rate is 12.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Galactian economy, worth 593 trillion Euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 138,267 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Soldiers are taught to throw their guns at their enemies once the bullets have run out, police frequently raid drugstores in search of contraband bottles of New Spice aftershave, claims adjusters are uselessly vague, and what citizens give with one hand they take away with the other. 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 59,801^st in the world and 1,324^th in The North Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 3,786.22 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
