The Theocracy of Celestium Sun is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Celestium Emperor with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, hatred of cheese, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.566 billion Sunians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Platinum Light Consortium. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 82.4%.

The very strong Sunian economy, worth 236 trillion starlets a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration and Basket Weaving. Average income is 66,217 starlets, with the richest citizens earning 8.5 times as much as the poorest.

It is considered unpatriotic to learn a foreign language, prison libraries are being replaced with interrogation chambers, wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", and little girls are in tears as the Celestium Emperor confiscates their pink princess ballgowns. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Celestium Sun's national animal is the golden griffin, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is the Cult of EverLight.

Celestium Sun is ranked 15,674^th in the world and 2^nd in Twixlandia for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,200.24 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
