The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 22.9%.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blade Squadron's national animal is the Kitsune.
