The Confederacy of The Islands of Gilbrina is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, otherworldly petting zoo, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.764 billion Islands of Gilbrinans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 83.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Islands of Gilbrinan economy, worth 173 trillion Gilbrs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,505 Gilbrs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Businesses that prove successful are immediately broken up, religious households enthusiastically use whips in private, cremation is compulsory for the deceased, and the practice of capital punishment proves divisive. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Islands of Gilbrina's national animal is the Anthro Peacock, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Islands of Gilbrina is ranked 203,774^th in the world and 8,579^th in The North Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 90.95 Percentage Of Bribes Refused.
