The District of Syx is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Liard with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, complete lack of public education, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 38.083 billion Syxians 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 tiny, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Spirituality, with Industry, Welfare, and Defense also on the agenda, while Environment and Law & Order are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.1%.

The very strong Syxian economy, worth a remarkable 1,495 trillion districtas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 39,276 districtas, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

Elections have been outlawed, Syx has designated District City as its capital city, and Liard has just been declared ruler of Syx in an international press conference. Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Syx's national animal is the quick pink fox, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Syx is ranked 220,530^th in the world and 1^st in Copenhagen for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 44.16 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
