The Queendom of Starlight Glimmer 24 is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its parental licensing program, rampant corporate plagiarism, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 8.102 billion Starlight Glimmer 24ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 53.0%.
The very strong Starlight Glimmer 24ian economy, worth 476 trillion bits a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,821 bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.
Armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, most of the population has had bad experiences with hoes, the military struggles with recruitment, and doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Starlight Glimmer 24's national animal is the pony, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Starlight Glimmer 24 is ranked 266,934th in the world and 4,336th in Artificial Solar System for Most Patriotic, with 0.91 flags saluted per person per day.
