The Christmas of Sphynx Nation7 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Nation with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, anti-smoking policies, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.368 billion Sphynx Nation7ians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Environment, and Administration also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sphynx. The average income tax rate is 90.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Sphynx Nation7ian economy, worth 420 trillion golds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 124,823 golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Older ladies are inundated with offers to help them cross the road, funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals, all recreational drugs are legal, and sleeping on the job is recommended. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sphynx Nation7's national animal is the cowbat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christmas.
Sphynx Nation7 is ranked 50,619th in the world and 2,176th in The North Pacific for Most Influential, scoring 889 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
