The Kingdom of Apexiala Cards 4 is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, public floggings, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.678 billion Apexialans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 25.1%.

The all-consuming Apexiala Cards 4ian economy, worth 527 trillion Apexialas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,855 Apexialas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, kids refer to anything below the neck as "the parts that shall not be named", some are born loving old plays and some have old plays thrust upon them, and the "temporary replacement bus service" is now a permanent fixture. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Apexiala Cards 4's national animal is the Mythic, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Apexiala Cards 4 is ranked 37,438^th in the world and 48^th in The Apexialan Commonwealth for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 187.49 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
