The Dominion of Boksotan is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its lack of airports, ban on automobiles, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 1.516 billion Boksotanians are prohibited from doing almost everything but make sure no one in government gets away with anything either.

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 87.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Boksotanian economy, worth 158 trillion structures 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 a large, well-organized, highly specialized black market in Tourism, 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 impressive 104,752 structures, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cat memes without alt text are now illegal, government officials who do an offal job get smoked, over a third of the seats in sports stadiums have been removed to make room for female-only commodes, and military officials are questioning the policy of ceding the nation's territory in exchange for promises not to invade it. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Boksotan's national animal is the moon bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Boksotan is ranked 223,176th in the world and 302nd in Concord for Largest Populations, with 1.52 billion capita.
