The Eternal Republic of Xirnium is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the High Court of Parliament with an even hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, parental licensing program, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 41.199 billion Xirniumites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small, corrupt government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Education and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Närväryn the Beautiful. The average income tax rate is 33.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Xirniumite economy, worth an astonishing 20,942 trillion florins a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 508,325 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

School children are expected to know the names of all seven hundred native tribes and their cultural practices, police conduct weekly raids looking for contraband cheeseburgers, the government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, and home renovation shows are increasingly popular. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Xirnium's national animal is the common barn owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is a chthonic goddess religion.

Xirnium is ranked 141,253^rd in the world and 24^th in Western Atlantic for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 33.7 Effective Tax Rate.
