The Kingdom of 4X is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, sprawling nuclear power plants, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 23.114 billion 4Xians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.6%.

The frighteningly efficient 4Xian economy, worth a remarkable 4,579 trillion Golds 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 Information Technology, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 198,129 Golds, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,810,103 per year while the poor average 2,374, a ratio of 762 to 1.

Airplanes have giant grilles on their noses to knock drones out of their path, the native owl population is in permanent hibernation, an Osiris Tourist Association survey has rated 4X #1 for number twos, and concussed Elephantball players cannot remember their lineup position. Crime is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. 4X's national animal is the Elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

4X is ranked 16,576^th in the world and 1,134^th in Osiris for Most Corrupt Governments, with 114.32 kickbacks per hour.
