The National Republic of Phoenxia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Reikmenster Malekski with an iron fist, and remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 12.107 billion Phoenxians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kassau. The average income tax rate is 74.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Phoenxian economy, worth a remarkable 1,264 trillion Phönixmarks a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 104,429 Phönixmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Phoenxian tourists are banned from many nations due to their tendency to randomly explode, Phoenxian companies generally just fire employees in lieu of giving them vacation, inheritance tax has recently been abolished, and citizens' names are redacted on their IDs for national security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Phoenxia's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Phoenixian Orthodoxy.
Phoenxia is ranked 34,834th in the world and 5th in Markion for Lowest Crime Rates, with 80.05 law-abiding acts per hour.
