The Equivocal Extraterrestrial of Allied Stumbler is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by The Void with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 9.447 billion Degenerates enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elysium. The average income tax rate is 96.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Degenerate economy, worth a remarkable 1,907 trillion Glorified Papers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an amazing 201,903 Glorified Papers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Social care for the elderly consists of a self help leaflet and a kick on the backside, government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains, babies are increasingly seen as a luxury, and cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Allied Stumbler's national animal is the Weeaboo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Futurism.

Allied Stumbler is ranked 5,466^th in the world and 268^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 542.93 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
