“Because a safe galaxy is a human galaxy”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Interstellar State of The Confederation of Earth is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by President Anton Chekov with an iron fist, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.147 billion Worlds are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Earth. The average income tax rate is 93.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Confederation of Earthian economy, worth 722 trillion Energy Credits a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 174,182 Energy Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation is wading into dangerous waters, tech-mad citizens think that the laser-powered bread-slicer uPhone App is the coolest thing since sliced bread, children grow up long before the paperwork for their lemonade stands can be sorted out, and foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Confederation of Earth's national animal is the Pakleds, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Humanocentrism.

The Confederation of Earth is ranked 2,054^th in the world and 58^th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 97.7 flags saluted per person per day.
