The Meritocratic Commonwealth of '''Glasguensis''' is a massive, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 3.322 billion are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The Meritocratic Commonwealth of Glasguensis is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 4.077 billion are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals devotes most of its attentions to Commerce, with areas such as Defence and Social Equality receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Gambling industries.

The leader of Glasguensis is Octavian, who represents Glasguensis in the Meritocratic Senate, where he holds the position of Tribune, having previously held the positions of Patrician Informationis and Censor. The current Senate was formed in May 2005, after Octavian, as Consul, dissolved the previous government of the Meritocracy and all its institutions. Within Glasguensis itself, Octavian strives to promote business whilst maintaining high levels of civil and political freedoms and avoiding income tax.
