The Empire of Star Forge is a large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 50 million Star Forgeans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government prioritizes Welfare, although Education, Defense, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Industry receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 12.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Star Forgean economy, worth 2.37 trillion galactic credits a year, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 47,372 galactic credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Euthanasia is legal, divorce is illegal, notable individuals are granted land and titles, and crowded passenger trains are near-silent save for the soft tap of fingers on touchscreens. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Star Forge's national animal is the ummm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Star Forge is ranked 118,252^nd in the world and 39^th in Scotia for Safest, scoring 74.43 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
