The Imperial Division of Imperial Stargate Command is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, soft-spoken computers, and public floggings. The hard-working, democratic population of 27.492 billion Arconians 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 medium-sized, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Environment receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imperial Command. The average income tax rate is 39.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Imperial Stargate Commandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,274 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 82,727 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Prisoners regularly escape detention posing as scarecrows, oil rigs in winter are heated by contained oil slick fires, ISC-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, and the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Imperial Stargate Command's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Jediism.

Imperial Stargate Command is ranked 90,241^st in the world and 3^rd in Galactic Imperium for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,369.08 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
