The Protectorate of Spice Harvester 235 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, avowedly heterosexual populace, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 8.289 billion Spice Harvester 235ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The tiny, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Administration, with Education, Industry, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Welfare and Defense are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.1%.
The strong Spice Harvester 235ian economy, worth 342 trillion spices a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 41,276 spices, with the richest citizens earning 7.0 times as much as the poorest.

Spice Harvester 235's national animal is the sandworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
