The Democratic Republic of Snestar is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Caitlin Wright with an even hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, free-roaming dinosaurs, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.234 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 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Snestaryan economy, worth 809 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 154,679 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Blackface performers claim they are being deliberately ironic, ancient antique swords have had their blades replaced with latex boffer LARP replicas, the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, and military equipment is being auctioned off to extend comatose centenarians' lives. 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 100,100^th in the world and 3,575^th in Lazarus for Largest Populations, with 5.23 billion capita.
