The Republic of Star Federation is a huge, pleasant nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 414 million Star Federationians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 16.3%.

The Star Federationian economy, worth 22.1 trillion squidcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology. Average income is 53,416 squidcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

The Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, students cut up leftover squidcoins during Arts and Crafts, one does not simply walk into the tundra, and the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Star Federation's national animal is the My long lost brother, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Star Federation is ranked 152,923^rd in the world and 187^th in Bozarkia for Highest Average Incomes, with 53,416.36 Standard Monetary Units.
