The Dominion of Xanistan is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 403 million Xanistani live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Education, Defense, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Law & Order receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Xantantinople. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Xanistani economy, worth 41.2 trillion karats a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 102,114 karats, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 476,614 per year while the poor average 13,095, a ratio of 36.4 to 1.

Government officials stay up all night in flame wars with their constituents, the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on Xanistan, a cat may look at a king and a dude can look at an ass, and there's no such thing as bad publicity. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Xanistan's national animal is the Drakkon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Xanistan is ranked 35,209^th in the world and 546^th in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 5,759.49 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
