The Queendom of Borg Queen is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Queen of the Borg with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 2.823 billion Borg Queenians 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, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Collective. The average income tax rate is 54.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Borg Queenian economy, worth 204 trillion Nanoprobes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 72,281 Nanoprobes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The world outside is only known of in folklore, remote-control hang-gliding scarecrows patrol the skies to keep songbirds from leaving the nation's borders, immigrant herding has become a national pastime, and vitriolic divorce proceedings have become prime-time television. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Borg Queen's national animal is the Species 8472, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Assimilation.

Borg Queen is ranked 75,038th in the world and 3rd in Coven of Witches for Largest Governments, scoring 18.89 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
