The Pirates of Xyanth is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by J Noble Daggett with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, public floggings, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 38.894 billion Xyanthians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Xyanth City. Income tax is unheard of.

The thriving Xyanthian economy, worth an astonishing 11,727 trillion Dark Net Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 301,513 Dark Net Credits, with the richest citizens earning 7.7 times as much as the poorest.

Victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians, coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, the nation's hospitals are criticized for caring more about profits than patients, and new government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps. Crime is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Xyanth's national animal is the cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Xyanth is ranked 649^th in the world and 3^rd in Capitalist Libertarian Freedom Region for Fattest Citizens, with 72 Obesity Rate.
