The Night Marvels of Starlit Constellations is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, absence of drug laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.366 billion Starlit Constellationsians 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 minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Public Transport, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.4%.

The strong Starlit Constellationsian economy, worth 95.6 trillion stars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is 40,404 stars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 271,862 per year while the poor average 2,239, a ratio of 121 to 1.

Boot polish is the favourite lip gloss of entry-level corporate workers, imprisonment is the leading cause of disownment, court cases mostly involve lawyers shouting questions at witnesses giving silent shrugs, and town welcome signs list corporate sponsors. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Starlit Constellations's national animal is the swan, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Starlit Constellations is ranked 274,664^th in the world and 512^th in Starlight for Nicest Citizens, with 5.59 average smiles per day.
