The Astar of Astarina is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Astar with a fair hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 12.506 billion Astars hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare and Defense are also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Melbourne. The average income tax rate is 5.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient an Astar economy, worth a remarkable 2,466 trillion dollarydoos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 197,206 dollarydoos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Military equipment stores have a tendency to go up in flames, stolen Reuben sandwiches are met with detailed and thorough police investigations, there's no cure or sympathy for the common cold, and small patches of desolate land across the world are part of an Astar sovereign territory. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Astarina's national animal is the human, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is secularism.

Astarina is ranked 7,401^st in the world and 181^st in the Rejected Realms for Most Developed, scoring 91.54 on the Human Development Index.
