The Confederacy of The Ajax Confederacy is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the High Lord with an even hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, humorless population of 13.689 billion Ajax Confederacyians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tanith. The average income tax rate is 94.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Ajax Confederacyian economy, worth a remarkable 2,427 trillion Miras a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 177,328 Miras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, forgetting to pay your annual passport bill is a leading cause of deportations, the nation has become a pariah for giving pirates letters of marque, and bureaucrats close new businesses for not complying with the Penguin Packaging Index. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Ajax Confederacy's national animal is the Backwards Hippo, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Ajax Confederacy is ranked 3,704^th in the world and 167^th in Lazarus for Most Beautiful Environments, with 2,741.58 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
