The Eternal Republic of Xirnium is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the High Court of Parliament with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, national health service, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 41.152 billion Xirniumites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small, corrupt government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Education and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Närväryn the Beautiful. The average income tax rate is 32.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Xirniumite economy, worth an astonishing 20,773 trillion florins a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 504,805 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The nation has nearly as many history museums as Xirniumites, private pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are given away freely by the government, oil executives can be seen reluctantly cleaning oil-soaked birds, and The High Court of Parliament's luxurious new home has been designated as a protected cultural heritage site. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Xirnium's national animal is the common barn owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is a chthonic goddess religion.

Xirnium is ranked 295^th in the world and 1^st in Western Atlantic for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 16,328.55 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
