The Republic of Ekrixia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Alexander Losofi with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.076 billion Ekrixians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Strebia. The average income tax rate is 79.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ekrixian economy, worth 329 trillion Krixes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,185 Krixes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

'To Regulate And Beyond' is the unofficial motto of the Ekrixian Space Agency, old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, the nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, and selling your granddad's clothes requires an incredible amount of paperwork. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ekrixia's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ekrixia is ranked 22,944^th in the world and 517^th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 87.43 law-abiding acts per hour.
