The Kingdom of Taxi is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 5.29 billion Taxians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 34.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Taxian economy, worth 129 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 24,488 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Taxi has designated Taxi City as its capital city, clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions, fake designer clothes are shredded and burnt while many in the world don't have a shirt on their back, and costumed characters wearing Maxtopian Grass leaves remind citizens that the government now sells the green stuff. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Taxi's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Taxi is ranked 102,524^th in the world and 1^st in Astrid for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 33.71 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
