The Armed Technocracy of The Gelseen Hegemony is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Chancellor Speers with an even hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, free-roaming dinosaurs, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 16.466 billion Gelseens have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rovenoir. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Gelseen Hegemonyian economy, worth an astonishing 11,627 trillion Gold Dinars 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 Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Tourism. 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 706,136 Gold Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, The Gelseen Hegemony's Medieval Faire is renowned as one of the best in the region, and the government defends a woman's right to choose. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The Gelseen Hegemony's national animal is the Red Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Worship through Creation.

The Gelseen Hegemony is ranked 210,548th in the world and 9,497th in Lazarus for Most Conservative, scoring 43.58 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
