The Empire of Baraxia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Emperor Hinai with an even hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.299 billion Baraxians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Uprax. The average income tax rate is 67.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Baraxian economy, worth 602 trillion Marks a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 140,120 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nations that kill a Baraxian can expect a strongly worded letter, money can't buy happiness but it can buy immunity to prosecution, new safety regulations require all cars manufactured in Baraxia to be bombproof, and behind every local dictator is a Baraxian advisor whispering in their ear. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Baraxia's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Baraxia is ranked 67,788th in the world and 3,078th in Lazarus for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50.99 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
