The Beautiful Stars of Bituin is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, rampant corporate plagiarism, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 741 million Bituinians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Manila. The average income tax rate is 49.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Bituinian economy, worth 44.1 trillion Philippine pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 59,448 Philippine pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has ended partisanship by ending elections, Bituinian actors literally work from cradle to grave, only lightning has a chance of striking Leader twice, and politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bituin's national animal is the Carabao, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bituin is ranked 103,126^th in the world and 1,452^nd in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,776.02 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
