The Galaxy-Wide Broadcast of Big Shot is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, otherworldly petting zoo, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 7.683 billion Big Shotians 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 tiny, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Big Shotian economy, worth 914 trillion Woolongs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 119,006 Woolongs, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 762,600 per year while the poor average 7,578, a ratio of 100 to 1.

Law schools are hurrying to teach the "prank defense" to their students, jury duty means front row seats to a spectacular show, orthopaedics patients often have a bounce in their step, and toy versions of heroin paraphernalia let kids pretend to be their favourite TV characters. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Big Shot's national animal is the Corgi, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Big Shot is ranked 15,467^th in the world and 324^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 9,092.25 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
