The Interstellar Federation of Technogium is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by the Synedrium with an iron fist, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 6.876 billion Technogians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Astrea. The average income tax rate is 91.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Technogian economy, worth a remarkable 1,275 trillion DELTA tritons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 185,554 DELTA tritons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions, bizarre-looking creatures called 'Horsedogs' dominate wildlife preserves, the government's new 'Crime Can Fight Itself' policy appears to be backfiring rather badly, and the nation's student exchange programs are something of a one way street. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Technogium's national animal is the Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Technogium is ranked 293,046^th in the world and 504^th in Starlight for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -16 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
