The Democratic Republic of Snestar is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Caitlin Wright with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, complete lack of prisons, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.177 billion Snestaryans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dandelicha. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Snestaryan economy, worth 799 trillion Euros a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 154,527 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only vaccinated citizens may have free healthcare, legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, it ain't easy to be green enough to be imported into Snestar, and the running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Snestar's national animal is the Starfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Snestar is ranked 7,733^rd in the world and 430^th in Lazarus for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 12,583.68 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
