The Final Death of Stalker Queen is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The Dark Mother with an iron fist, and remarkable for its fear of technology, aversion to nipples, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 14.877 billion Stalkers 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."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ravenloss. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 91.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Stalking economy, worth a remarkable 2,019 trillion Personnel détails a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Basket Weaving industry. Average income is an impressive 135,761 Personnel détails, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 681,184 per year while the poor average 15,159, a ratio of 44.9 to 1.

Bris parties are all the rage, both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, the police have been reduced to using duct tape instead of handcuffs following further cutbacks, and a lack of funding for new shows has turned television into 24/7 re-runs. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Stalker Queen's national animal is the Quarry, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Stalking.

Stalker Queen is ranked 305,878th in the world and 12,946th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 4.96 law-abiding acts per hour.
