The Kingdom of Halosphere is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 21.697 billion Halosphereans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beacon Hill. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 42.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Halospherean economy, worth a remarkable 5,486 trillion Marks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 252,846 Marks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,202,519 per year while the poor average 31,308, a ratio of 38.4 to 1.

Female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast, the regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb, nobility is the world's oldest profession, and the writing style of religious hymns often changes mid-stanza. Crime is totally unknown. Halosphere's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Halosphere is ranked 16,638^th in the world and 1^st in The Realms of Light for Largest Populations, with 21.7 billion capita.
