The Empire of Maxhuaixa

“As the Great Jaguar Hunts”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Empire of Maxhuaixa is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Tlatoani Yaquica with an iron fist, and notable for its triple-decker prams, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.731 billion Mahuaitecs 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 enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tiktalcoxlan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 81.0%.

The powerhouse Mahuaica economy, worth 540 trillion Cacao Beans a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 94,360 Cacao Beans, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 351,356 per year while the poor average 17,787, a ratio of 19.8 to 1.

Children asking questions about science are referred to relevant sections in religious texts, the people's love for Tlatoani Yaquica is little more than self-preservation, caroling is considered a public disturbance, and in coastal waters there are fifteen salvage divers per dead man's chest (yo ho ho). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maxhuaixa's national animal is the Jaguar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cult of the Sun God.

Maxhuaixa is ranked 21,560^th in the world and 500^th in The East Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 90 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
