The Savage Seduction of Silk Spectre is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Laurie Juspeczyk with a fair hand, and renowned for its burgeoning owl population. The hard-working, democratic population of 16.947 billion Jupiters are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Manhattan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.
The very strong Jupiter economy, worth 968 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 57,149 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 169,923 per year while the poor average 15,069, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.
The nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, the fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast, a byzantine web of conspiracies and secret alliances must be navigated any time legislation is voted upon, and museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Silk Spectre's national animal is the owl, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities, and its national religion is nuclear deterrence.
Silk Spectre is ranked 192,054th in the world and 2nd in Manhattan for Most Secular, with 16.19 Atheism Rate.
