The Borderlands of Pyatzvezkie is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its closed borders, digital currency, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 480 million Pyatzvezkieans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.7%.

The all-consuming Pyatzvezkiean economy, worth 39.1 trillion Government Mandate Noteses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 81,523 Government Mandate Noteses, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

All government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of Pyatzvezkie City, senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, and the government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Pyatzvezkie's national animal is the Vultures, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Pyatzvezkie is ranked 7,395^th in the world and 16^th in First World Order for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 10,393.58 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
