The Queendom of Starlight Glimmer 117 is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, pith helmet sales, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 7.929 billion Starlight Glimmer 117ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 38.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Starlight Glimmer 117ian economy, worth 539 trillion bits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,026 bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pregnant hitchhikers with signs requesting rides to "competent care" are a common sight on Starlight Glimmer 117ian roads, it's been a banner year for local vexillology, most believe it doesn't hurt to embrace free trade, and even religious militants can be swayed by the power of #love. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Starlight Glimmer 117's national animal is the pony, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Starlight Glimmer 117 is ranked 110,082nd in the world and 882nd in Artificial Solar System for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 1,156.58 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
