The Republic of Foxilia is a very large, cultured nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 402 million Foxilians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Foxilian economy, worth 6.88 trillion foxeleons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 17,122 foxeleons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

On-duty Air Foxilia flight attendants are usually seen napping in first class, undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations, the stock market has been destroyed for its own protection, and bouncers at the door of the sweet shop warn five-year-olds not to cause trouble. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Foxilia's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Foxilia is ranked 306,207^th in the world and 70^th in Rosaria for Largest Black Market, with 11.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
