The Foxs' state of Capitulists is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by The Great Fox with an iron fist, and remarkable for its fear of technology, pith helmet sales, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 2.004 billion Foxes are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eransk. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.3%.

The all-consuming Fox economy, worth 229 trillion Foxs' dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,421 Foxs' dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 385,956 per year while the poor average 25,110, a ratio of 15.4 to 1.

Capitulists recently hosted the least successful trade negotiations since The Phantom Menace, young girls and senior citizens alike can be spotted wearing colourful short shorts, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, and murderers facing life in prison listen to long sermons on positive thinking. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Capitulists's national animal is the fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Religion of Great Fox.

Capitulists is ranked 51,073rd in the world and 5th in Foxtopia for Highest Average Incomes, with 114,421.45 Standard Monetary Units.
