The Altitude of Celestial 5 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by the Lord with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, zero percent divorce rate, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 14.034 billion Celestials are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Laputa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The strong Celestial economy, worth a remarkable 1,083 trillion planetary invasions a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 77,220 planetary invasions, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 230,971 per year while the poor average 20,190, a ratio of 11.4 to 1.

Children are terrified that the 'flying police monster' will come to take them away in the night, drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, private businesses are paving paradises to put up parking lots, and murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Celestial 5's national animal is the extra terrestrial, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is up to your imagination.

Celestial 5 is ranked 84,596^th in the world and 2^nd in Celestial Empire for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,905.48 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
