The Ziggy Stardust of David Bowie is a titanic, cultured nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory vegetarianism, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.433 billion David Bowieans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Industry, although Administration, Defense, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Public Transport is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of London. The average income tax rate is 48.2%.

The frighteningly efficient David Bowiean economy, worth a remarkable 1,643 trillion changes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 132,151 changes, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

Children have lost interest in toy guns in favor of toy meth lab kits, a popular saying is "don't do the crime if you can't smash the lime(stone)", advertisers are struggling to make water sound cool to a twitchy public, and the year's most anticipated show is "Great Deals on Delicious Meals". Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. David Bowie's national animal is the ziggy, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

David Bowie is ranked 188,133^rd in the world and 5^th in Brooklyn for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 166.62 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
