The Punx of Junx is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Junxie with an iron fist, and renowned for its state-planned economy, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 24.84 billion Junxians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Junxia. The average income tax rate is 69.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Junxian economy, worth 698 trillion Juxes 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 slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. 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 28,116 Juxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, Junxism has been named as Junx's national religion, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, and Junxie has just been declared ruler of Junx in an international press conference. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Junx's national animal is the jaybird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Junxism.

Junx is ranked 122,114th in the world and 2nd in RPGM Pavilion for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.5 law-abiding acts per hour.
