The Queendom of Starlight Glimmer 25 is a colossal, genial nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, infamous sell-swords, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 8.037 billion Starlight Glimmer 25ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 44.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Starlight Glimmer 25ian economy, worth 414 trillion bits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,528 bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Patriots insist that size does matter, soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, burnt-out forty-foot-tall wicker men dot the countryside, and fans doing the wave routinely disrupt the finals of Go tournaments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Starlight Glimmer 25's national animal is the pony, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Starlight Glimmer 25 is ranked 96,853^rd in the world and 663^rd in Artificial Solar System for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.26 law-abiding acts per hour.
