The Republic of Ekrixia is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Alexander Losofi with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.404 billion Ekrixians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Administration, although Environment, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Strebia. The average income tax rate is 79.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ekrixian economy, worth 921 trillion Krixes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 109,686 Krixes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, workers for the environmental protection agency are patted down for tartar sauce every morning, the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system, and the government is coughing up funds for lung cancer victims. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ekrixia's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ekrixia is ranked 17,162^nd in the world and 367^th in the South Pacific for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 79.89 Effective Tax Rate.
