The Despotic Union of Oxirix is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Xall with an even hand, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 19.794 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Public Transport. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Suntau. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

Citizens are frequently held up at gunpoint by their local pizza delivery boys, the people are furious with the government for allowing citizens to be executed for petty crimes in foreign countries, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, and mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling. Oxirix's national animal is the Sphynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Eucastrian Drachma.

Oxirix is ranked 1,253rd in the Rejected Realms and 99,393rd in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -37 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
