State of the Union

The Nation of Beta Aurigae VII is a massive, economically powerful nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 6.637 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Commerce. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture industries.

Graffiti graces every city's streets, breastfeeding mothers are replacing smokers to loiter outside the workplace, citizens are regularly found digging for treasure in their gardens, and UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Beta Aurigae VII's national animal is the Tiger Shark, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Kilo.
