The Republic of Glael Clington is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, hatred of cheese, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 395 million Clingtonians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caitara. The average income tax rate is 43.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Glael Clingtonian economy, worth 26.2 trillion euros a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 66,365 euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Ratings for schools' curricula range from 'Pure as the Driven Snow' to 'Late Night TV', citizens must pay to enjoy Glael Clington's pristine beaches, in government offices a hidden killer takes the lives of ministers and civil servants, and everybody's got wood thanks to Leader. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Glael Clington's national animal is the phoenix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Glael Clington is ranked 36,863rd in the world and 467th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 189.57 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
