The Empire of Infinite Star is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Karls Franz with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, prohibition of alcohol, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.693 billion Imperial are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Altdorf. The average income tax rate is 92.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Imperial economy, worth a remarkable 1,782 trillion Golds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 313,075 Golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, and at the edge of the final frontier space's biggest missile platform is about to unfold. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Infinite Star's national animal is the Gryphon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Sigmar.

Infinite Star is ranked 1,000^th in the world and 16^th in the West Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 10,484.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
