The Queendom of Borg Queen is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Queen of the Borg with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 6.467 billion Borg Queenians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Collective. The average income tax rate is 56.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Borg Queenian economy, worth 518 trillion Nanoprobes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 80,243 Nanoprobes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ghost regiments exist only on paper, it is well recognised that you can't sustain communism without a bit of spirit, children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, and anyone who sneezes at border crossings is turned away. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Borg Queen's national animal is the Species 8472, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Assimilation.

Borg Queen is ranked 50,088th in the world and 2nd in Coven of Witches for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 181.87 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
