The Most Serene Commonwealth of Skivx is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Skivx with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, infamous sell-swords, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.66 billion Skivxes are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Skivx. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Skivxian economy, worth a remarkable 2,117 trillion Skivxes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 167,269 Skivxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Unpopular cops are fired at a moment's notice by the citizens they police, printing out government documents requires the approval of at least three admins, a surprising number of police officers have been arrested for Skivx sacrifices, and Skivx's Twitcher account is typically used to share Skivx memes rather than government policy. Crime is totally unknown. Skivx's national animal is the Skivx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Skivx.

Skivx is ranked 1,971^st in the world and 1^st in ISAF2 for Nicest Citizens, with 71.16 average smiles per day.
