The Eternal Matriarchal Queendom of Moon Watchers is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by High Queen Boudica Uachtarach Marudeamha with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 4.81 billion Moon Watchers 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cathair nan Gàel agus oidhche. The average income tax rate is 74.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Moon Watchersian economy, worth 677 trillion Silver Shells a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 140,918 Silver Shells, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens compete to guess the time between the royal lady's contractions, you can call your arthritic immigrant neighbour for all your roof-tiling and guttering needs, the Moon Watchersian Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, and bands of paramedics walk the streets looking for suspicious medical activity. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Moon Watchers's national animal is the Arctic Werewolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Ord Naofa na Banríona Oíche.

Moon Watchers is ranked 5,127^th in the world and 1^st in North Arctic Dimension for Lowest Crime Rates, with 115.93 law-abiding acts per hour.
