“The Leader is good. The Leader is great.”

The Rogue Nation of Amyx is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, sprawling nuclear power plants, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.254 billion Amyxians 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 tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order and Industry are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Amyxian economy, worth a remarkable 2,502 trillion Amyx Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 303,139 Amyx Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,742,272 per year while the poor average 25,337, a ratio of 68.8 to 1.

Mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, wrongful arrests abound as 'criminals' blame the guy next to them, families must live in a village for a century before they get any say in how it runs, and to 'cut off family ties' is no longer just a phrase. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Amyx's national animal is the wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Amyx is ranked 259,546^th in the world and 115^th in The Alliance of Dictators for Smartest Citizens, with 0.23 quips per hour.
