The Republic of Plotxxx is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its state-planned economy, infamous sell-swords, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.87 billion Plotxxxians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 39.3%.

The thriving Plotxxxian economy, worth 167 trillion arils 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 89,700 arils, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Baby dolls thrown in the trash are a leading cause of panic attacks, prankster scientists legally change their names to silly pseudonyms before major discoveries, there's sophisticated talk of revolution within the ever-expanding mining colonies, and charged suspects often have to wait years before the courts have room to judge their trial. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Plotxxx's national animal is the rainbow jay, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Plotxxx is ranked 65,399th in the world and 88th in ArilCards Inc for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 2,950.9 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
