The Rogue Nation of Stellion is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The democratic population of 127 million Stellionians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 71.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Stellionian economy, worth 3.21 trillion stelis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving and Information Technology. Average income is 25,278 stelis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, birth rates have hit an all-time low, hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal, and literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stellion's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Stellion is ranked 200,489^th in the world and 1,777^th in the West Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 55.23 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
