The Incorporated States of Blackstellar is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 423 million Blackstellarians 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."

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Astonia. The average income tax rate is 20.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Blackstellarian economy, worth 38.4 trillion Scripts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 90,857 Scripts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life, sick Blackstellarians are hair today and gone tomorrow, it turns out that you actually can put a price on intangible cultural heritage, and enemy agents are generally eliminated with extreme prejudice. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blackstellar's national animal is the Puppygirls, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Blackstellar is ranked 50,237^th in the world and 18^th in Lesbian for Most Cultured, scoring 72 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
