The Autocratic Republic of Vexilia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Teethy Phoenix with an iron fist, and remarkable for its vat-grown people, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.653 billion Vexilians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Phoenix. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Vexilian economy, worth a remarkable 3,441 trillion Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 356,494 Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers, bicyclists are banned from major roads, East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', and historical commemorations regularly devolve into militaristic jingoism. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vexilia's national animal is the Orca, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Vexilia is ranked 20,150^th in the world and 969^th in The North Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 7,482.1 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
