The Eternal Afterlife of Stovicor is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Kahless the Unforgettable with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 45.101 billion Stovicorians 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gik'Tal. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Stovicorian economy, worth a remarkable 8,199 trillion credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 181,802 credits, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 594,262 per year while the poor average 41,807, a ratio of 14.2 to 1.

The nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics, homogenous restaurants all have very similar menus, the "fire department" is often called to remove offensive religious texts, and colours are running as Stovicorians take on their own laundry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stovicor's national animal is the Targ, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is kuvah'magh.

Stovicor is ranked 7,835th in the world and 9th in Dragon Lair for Most Stationary, with 2,649.73113055988 days.
