The Nomadic Peoples of Star Horde is a large, safe nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, rampant corporate plagiarism, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 68 million Stargazers love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 48.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Stargazer economy, worth 3.65 trillion energy credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 53,688 energy credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The official Stargazer Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, the government has little issue with allowing its citizens to languish in foreign jails, increasing numbers of children in Star Horde have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers, and crowded passenger trains are near-silent save for the soft tap of fingers on touchscreens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Star Horde's national animal is the space whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Star Horde is ranked 17,794th in the world and 6th in The Embassy for Safest, scoring 114.95 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
