The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 43.572 billion Claraxians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, liberal government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Welfare, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Oxford. The average income tax rate is 63.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
