The People's Commune of United Fex is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.811 billion Fexians 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fehh. The average income tax rate is 91.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Fexian economy, worth 576 trillion stamps a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is 99,177 stamps, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sex changes are routinely performed at United Fex's hospitals, male med students learning female anatomy do so with their eyes tightly closed, the government is spending millions on alternative clean-burning fuels, and stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues. Crime is totally unknown. United Fex's national animal is the pigeon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Feukism.

United Fex is ranked 20,110^th in the world and 120^th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 279.3 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
