The Republic of Starlight Uranus is a massive, genial nation, renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, keen interest in outer space, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.267 billion Starlight Uranusians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.2%.

The powerhouse Starlight Uranusian economy, worth 250 trillion lotuses a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,380 lotuses, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 458,663 per year while the poor average 17,390, a ratio of 26.4 to 1.

School lunches are made with hypo-allergenic wood pulp, the nation proudly hosts OstraCon to decide who gets free vacations to the Brancaland tundra, pillows outnumber picket signs at most workers rallies, and the nation's mettle is about to be tested. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Starlight Uranus's national animal is the moonlark, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Starlight Uranus is ranked 311,690th in the world and 4,825th in eta for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -10.2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
