The X-Confederacy of Xartan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 17.731 billion Xartani live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Public Transport. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.9%.

The very strong Xartanan economy, worth a remarkable 1,207 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 68,111 Euros, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 219,335 per year while the poor average 16,011, a ratio of 13.7 to 1.

Euthanasia is legal, voting is voluntary, surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods, and surveillance cameras are banned. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Xartan's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Xartan is ranked 93,994^th in the world and 57^th in Canada for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 88.88 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
