The North Star of Halsoni is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Witch-King of Angmaruben with a fair hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, keen interest in outer space, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 5.593 billion Halsonians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The large, corrupt, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Angmaruben. The average income tax rate is 69.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Halsonian economy, worth 692 trillion dollaridoos a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 123,837 dollaridoos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

Bus shelters seem to be designed to let rain in, feeling like a winner comes at a price, economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year, and fan-made edits of old films have seen a sudden jump in quality. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Halsoni's national animal is the doggo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Egocentric Rubenism.

Halsoni is ranked 194,257^th in the world and 4,895^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 45.92 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
