The Autocratic State of Vexilia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by El Presidente with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 1.679 billion Vexilians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Phoenix. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Vexilian economy, worth 327 trillion Pounds 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. 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 an impressive 194,904 Pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 692,343 per year while the poor average 39,541, a ratio of 17.5 to 1.

Public incontinence is a growing problem amongst the nation's women, organ donation is compulsory, unwary hikers climbing the bluffs of Mount Phoenix make great practice for foreign snipers, and wigged-out hunters report playing croquet with the Queen of Hearts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vexilia's national animal is the Orca, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is The Government.

Vexilia is ranked 147,347^th in the world and 7,658^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 7.14 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
