The Dictatorship of Star-Killer is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Visorax with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The devout population of 9.317 billion Star-Killerians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Visograd. The average income tax rate is 50.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Star-Killerian economy, worth 313 trillion rubledollars 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 slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. 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 33,664 rubledollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Blind students are at a disadvantage now that test papers printed in braille have been discontinued, the government funds private schools for intellectually gifted children, the nation's once beautiful countryside has turned brown as farmers spray potent pesticides, and it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Star-Killer's national animal is the hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Visoraxism.

Star-Killer is ranked 171,535th in the world and 3,545th in Suspicious for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,033.38 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
