The Federation of New Maxta is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Vycar Darkfire with an even hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 21.686 billion New Maxtans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maxtopolis. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Maxtan economy, worth a remarkable 3,049 trillion Maxxens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 140,618 Maxxens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest national park is visited by more sharks than people, annulments are on the rise as couples discover their ancestors were born in the same hospitals, Vycar Darkfire's used car is held together by bumper stickers that support the opposition, and graffiti is done with immaculate multi-layer shading. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New Maxta's national animal is the Bull Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Maxta is ranked 324,400^th in the world and 4,024^th in the South Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -13.19 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
