The High Priesthood of Raxion is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Brother Rax with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, prohibition of alcohol, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 26.145 billion Raxonions are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order and Healthcare are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Memory. The average income tax rate is 91.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Raxonion economy, worth a remarkable 8,339 trillion Blessings a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 318,973 Blessings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

The police have nothing to do with the increasing number of 'disappeared', the nation's most popular sport is sabotaging foreigners' hopes and dreams, ritual mummification is making a comeback, and the treehouse in Primate Park is the tallest building in Raxion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Raxion's national animal is the primate, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Entropy.

Raxion is ranked 7,083^rd in the world and 3^rd in The Brotherhood of Malice for Largest Populations, with 26.1 billion capita.
