The Queen's State of Xylot is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 32.509 billion Xylotians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.2%.

The very strong Xylotian economy, worth a remarkable 1,300 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Gambling. Average income is 39,999 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 257,798 per year while the poor average 2,507, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and Xylot has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem. Xylot's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Xylot is ranked 286,181st in the world and 7th in Burundi for Lowest Crime Rates, with 37.91 law-abiding acts per hour.
