The Dominion of The Skatar is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Draconis with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 14.022 billion Skatarians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capitol. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Skatarian economy, worth a remarkable 4,602 trillion Raivars 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. 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 an amazing 328,225 Raivars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's new Mylab space station is notorious for being the loneliest place above the planet, Skatarian husbands are dead good at fathering kids, rare steaks seem even bluer now, and relationships often break down when doctors tell couples they are genetically incompatible. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Skatar's national animal is the Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Draconianism.

The Skatar is ranked 29,554^th in the world and 61^st in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Largest Populations, with 14.0 billion capita.
