The United States of Stellar North is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.381 billion Stellar Northians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The minute, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 6.3%.

The Stellar Northian economy, worth 85.5 trillion stellis a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 61,918 stellis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, and residents are readily ratting out rats in restaurants. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Stellar North's national animal is the boar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Stellar North is ranked 30,507^th in the world and 88^th in Starlight for Least Corrupt Governments, with 94.05 percentage of bribes refused.
