The Theocracy of Pso Star System is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its closed borders, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 491 million Psosians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valkhoral. The average income tax rate is 59.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Psosian economy, worth 44.3 trillion Pso Credits 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Tourism, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. 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 90,229 Pso Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms, the government loves seeing the little people fight, polygamy is legal, and the government is a law unto itself. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pso Star System's national animal is the Station Rodent, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pso Star System is ranked 68,405th in the world and 1,043rd in The East Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 90,229.84 Standard Monetary Units.
