The Holy Empire of Texaca is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Kennedy with an even hand, and notable for its digital currency, triple-decker prams, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.744 billion Texacans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jericho. The average income tax rate is 23.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Texacan economy, worth 596 trillion TXDS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 159,294 TXDS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, there are six more weeks of winter if a northerner sees his shadow, Emperor Kennedy's webseries about the alleged hauntings of Jericho generates millions of views, and new regulations have put a halt to monkey business. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Texaca's national animal is the Turtle Dove, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Texaca is ranked 301,309^th in the world and 296^th in Christians for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 23.19 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
