The Confederacy of Xessmithia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 11.784 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defence, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 56%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology industry, followed by Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing.

Drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the nation is currently revamping its entire education system, and the people are famous throughout the region for their bleached-white teeth. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Xessmithia's national animal is the ring tailed lemur, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Credit.

Xessmithia is ranked 1st in the region and 37,903rd in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
