The United Incorporated States of Laxoimia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Jonathan Bernhardt with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 12.687 billion Laxomese have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dellmoor. The average income tax rate is 76.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Laxoimian economy, worth a remarkable 2,869 trillion Laxoimia Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 226,202 Laxoimia Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose, the 'Museum Of Stuff We Stole' is a tourist favourite, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, and welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Laxoimia's national animal is the Laxoimia Flying Parrot Fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Laxoimia is ranked 1,074^th in the world and 48^th in The North Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 349.05 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
