The Holy Grand Empire of Xusma is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Tsar Ivan Vasilevskiy with an iron fist, and notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 21.364 billion Xussmen 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 medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while Social Policy and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sosnovka. The average income tax rate is 81.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Xussman economy, worth a remarkable 6,197 trillion Imperial Rurs a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 290,097 Imperial Rurs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The deaf are perplexed when the weather report tells them that the wind will be "bringing some rain along the Nazi ghosts", promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service, the nation is wading into dangerous waters, and being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Xusma's national animal is the Grizzly Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Eastern Orthodox.

Xusma is ranked 278,477^th in the world and 247^th in The League for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.85 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
