The Dominion of Twilight Imperium is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Charles Densem with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 25.111 billion Twilight Imperiumians 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hyperion. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Twilight Imperiumian economy, worth a remarkable 3,372 trillion cronuses a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 134,287 cronuses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Charles Densem's mistress is the belle at many state balls, Hyperion is a police state during international summits, the navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, and unpackaged foodstuffs rot on store shelves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Twilight Imperium's national animal is the firefly, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is theism.

Twilight Imperium is ranked 302,590^th in the world and 1,172^nd in Europeia for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -11.05 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
