The Dictatorship of Moonshot is a small, genial nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 36 million Moonshotians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 59.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Moonshotian economy, worth 1.53 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 42,365 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, teenage TV characters are played by thirty-year-olds by the end of the second season, confused-looking pigeons slide gently off frictionless window ledges, and a passport is literally priceless. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Moonshot's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Moonshot is ranked 203,352^nd in the world and 1,742^nd in the West Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 92.22 percentage of bribes refused.
