The Queendom of Starlight Glimmer 53 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its frequent executions, avant-garde cinema, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, devout population of 7.719 billion Starlight Glimmer 53ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 32.5%.

The thriving Starlight Glimmer 53ian economy, worth 602 trillion bits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,118 bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

The police strictly enforce off-limit zones for tourists, billions of bits are being blown on orbital weapons development, members of ethnic minorities are more often called "boy" or "girl" than by their actual names, and money that should have gone to charities is instead spent on monitoring them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Starlight Glimmer 53's national animal is the pony, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Starlight Glimmer 53 is ranked 136,440th in the world and 1,715th in Artificial Solar System for Most Stationary, with 228.93095070632 days.
