The Republic of Clone Trooper 8 is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its frequent executions, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.529 billion Clone Trooper 8ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 35.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Clone Trooper 8ian economy, worth 66.9 trillion Credits a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 43,762 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians, glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, torture is commonly used to extract information from suspected criminals, and the nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Clone Trooper 8's national animal is the Droid, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Clone Trooper 8 is ranked 152,994^th in the world and 4^th in Midville Empire for Most Developed, scoring 55.79 on the Human Development Index.
