The Autocratic Republic of Vexilia is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by President Teethy Phoenix with an iron fist, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, avant-garde cinema, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.788 billion Vexilians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Phoenix. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Vexilian economy, worth a remarkable 3,476 trillion Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 355,221 Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children in school learn that marriage and slavery go hand in hand, Vexilian watches are often the only thing to survive a disaster intact, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, and cleaners are very careful not to bump into the big red button on President Teethy Phoenix's desk. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vexilia's national animal is the Orca, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Vexilia is ranked 236,457^th in the world and 9,438^th in The North Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 3.88 Obesity Rate.
