The Republic of Fixation is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 154 million Fixationians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.3%.

The very strong Fixationian economy, worth 10.4 trillion Gold Coins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. Average income is 67,228 Gold Coins, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

Many of the unemployed have had the fight taken out of them, weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments, dog owners proudly declare that their pups can predict when the mailman will arrive, and the nation's reputation for treachery has left it sidelined on the international stage. Crime is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Fixation's national animal is the Zombie, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Fixation is ranked 78,862nd in the world and 32nd in Disney World for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 99.75 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
