The Space-Time Experience of The Euphoric Vortex is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Geoff and his Cool Stick with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, devout population of 3.749 billion Stargazers enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Stargazer economy, worth 315 trillion Cookie Doughs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Soda Sales. Average income is 84,006 Cookie Doughs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Starving citizens are offered nuclear pasta, the country's population is reported with a margin of error of several billions, diaper-wrapped shawarma is a fan-favorite, and young people suspect their parents might be a little bit stupid. Crime is totally unknown. The Euphoric Vortex's national animal is the Weird Looking Creature, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Euphoric Vortex is ranked 247,458^th in the world and 1,922^nd in the West Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -2.53 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
