The Federation of Captn Picard is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-working population of 4.894 billion Captn Picardians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 23.7%.

The Captn Picardian economy, worth 255 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 52,159 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Every workday begins with group therapy, the people elect the Supreme Court justices directly, being dead no longer has any benefits, and doctors spend more time writing sick notes than caring for the sick. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Captn Picard's national animal is the Borg, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Captn Picard is ranked 234,673^rd in the world and 106^th in Equilism for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 29.27 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
