The Intergalactic Alliance of Betelgeuse Alliance is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Roger A with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, unlimited-speed roads, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 5.375 billion Betelgeusians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Betelgeuse City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Betelgeuse Alliancean economy, worth a remarkable 1,085 trillion Betels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 202,009 Betels, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 718,853 per year while the poor average 40,870, a ratio of 17.6 to 1.
