The Gold Commonwealth of The planet nation is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by a random astronomer with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 8.035 billion planetians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moonipolis. The average income tax rate is 92.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient planet nationian economy, worth a remarkable 1,142 trillion Spacebucks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 142,185 Spacebucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government pours millions of Spacebucks into rehabilitation programs annually, heart attack victims are thrown onto the rails, anyone who sneezes at border crossings is turned away, and commuters and their desktops both bemoan their hard drives. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The planet nation's national animal is the Toucan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Stargazing.

The planet nation is ranked 6,353^rd in the world and 175^th in The East Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 2,062.29 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
