The Empire of Gaberel is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Jin with an iron fist, and remarkable for its enslaved workforce, pith helmet sales, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 21.017 billion Gaberelians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gaberel City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Gaberelian economy, worth an astonishing 20,661 trillion galecs 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 Uranium Mining. 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 983,106 galecs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,449,467 per year while the poor average 203,251, a ratio of 17.0 to 1.

Children are often observed making 'sand angels' in bunkers, people say that cubists are rubbish because they can't draw faces, roosters that herald the rising sun are immediately sent to the slaughterhouse, and being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Gaberel's national animal is the panther, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Gaberel is ranked 218,047th in the world and 6,378th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 30.41062637052 days.
