The State of Fire Star is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12.355 billion Fire Starians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 19.1%.

The strong Fire Starian economy, worth 482 trillion betales a year, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Tourism. Average income is 39,057 betales, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate. Fire Star's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Fire Star is ranked 235,453^rd in the world and 7^th in Wyoming for Lowest Crime Rates, with 55.3 law-abiding acts per hour.
