The Republic of Shaak Ti is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.922 billion Shaak Tians 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 relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.9%.

The strong Shaak Tian economy, worth 167 trillion credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. Average income is 57,272 credits, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Prison is a nightmare, a major religion has been named as Shaak Ti's national religion, Leader has just been declared ruler of Shaak Ti in an international press conference, and Shaak Ti has designated Shaak Ti City as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Shaak Ti's national animal is the bantha.

Shaak Ti is ranked 71,127^th in the world and 2^nd in Galactic Republic for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,426.63 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
