The Marshmallow laser of Space Unicorn is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Parry Gripp with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 13.436 billion Space Unicornians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of All around the world. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Space Unicornian economy, worth a remarkable 2,363 trillion Rainbows a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 175,931 Rainbows, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 534,181 per year while the poor average 45,028, a ratio of 11.9 to 1.

People who get diabetes can sue donut manufacturers, it isn't a secret plot without caviar and foie gras, mathematics majors learn about new ways to model their crushing debt, and famous artwork is regularly confiscated for plagiarism. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Space Unicorn's national animal is the Unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is music.

Space Unicorn is ranked 197,359th in the world and 4th in Bytes for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 412.44 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
