The Starlit Expanse of Preziculca is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory vegetarianism, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 619 million Culcans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Welfare, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tokkari Central. The average income tax rate is 81.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Culcan economy, worth 67.2 trillion silver starlings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 108,532 silver starlings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Embarrassed police officers wear spandex and carry net guns, legislation sometimes has to battle through weeks of filibustering to pass, gangs of political bullies tell minority voices to "shut up because we say so", and getting an autograph has become harder than ever. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Preziculca's national animal is the seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Preziculca is ranked 6,654^th in the world and 1^st in Low Earth Orbit for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 74.33 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
