The Scorching Flames of Starlight Pollux is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its digital currency, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 3.707 billion Starlight Polluxians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 61.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Starlight Polluxian economy, worth 396 trillion rupees a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 106,998 rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

The nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned, economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society, deceased politicians' MyFace profiles are unanimously pro-incumbent, and no one gossips with Leader during diplomatic summits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Starlight Pollux's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Starlight Pollux is ranked 311,734^th in the world and 4,841^st in eta for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -8.85 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
