The Arctic Fox Magician of Nunki is a mammoth, efficient nation, remarkable for its enslaved workforce, strictly enforced bedtime, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed population of 9.545 billion Nunkians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Arctic. The average income tax rate is 24.2%.

The powerhouse Nunkian economy, worth 869 trillion yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 91,131 yen, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Newspapers may not print any negative stories about the government, fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, flatulent people are left to die of cancer at the end of hospital waiting lists, and Leader claims tax rises are the result of 'curses'. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Nunki's national animal is the arctic fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Nunki is ranked 20,713^th in the world and 6^th in Remembrance for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 69,077.67 Standard Monetary Units.
