The 🐼🐼🐼 of Vyx is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Ice Bear with an even hand, and remarkable for its aversion to nipples, keen interest in outer space, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed population of 7.025 billion Bears have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Central Bear Neutral Zone. The average income tax rate is 9.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bearian economy, worth 984 trillion Trans-Bearian labour credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 140,156 Trans-Bearian labour credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Rundown towns are frequently sold to billionaires for their pet projects, the government seizes corporate assets it deems 'scary enough', the Department of Reduction of Bureaucratic Red Tape has set up a working committee to investigate its own excessive paperwork, and cyclists spend more time unlocking their bicycles than they do cycling. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Vyx's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Bear Reverence.

Vyx is ranked 247,957^th in the world and 4^th in Black Bear for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 924.18 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
