The Commonwealth of Xanatosi is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by President of the Junta Samad Manekshaw with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, triple-decker prams, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 1.019 billion Xanatosians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, 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 Recean Cap. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 38.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Xanatosian economy, worth 154 trillion Xanotents a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 151,812 Xanotents, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 588,201 per year while the poor average 26,854, a ratio of 21.9 to 1.

The Xanatosian Babysitters Club has proven to be a huge relief to stressed-out parents across the nation, the Holy Office of the Inquisition is the highest court in the land, suppression of pro-democracy protests is a daily occurrence, and asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Xanatosi's national animal is the Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Recean Nationalism.

Xanatosi is ranked 88,190^th in the world and 3,683^rd in The North Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 2,320.77 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
