The People's Republic of Nutrixus is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Commander Ziggy von Molotov with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.977 billion Nutrixusians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pata. The average income tax rate is 47.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Nutrixusian economy, worth 54.7 trillion Nutras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 27,687 Nutras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The slowest students feel vaguely targeted by their Mendelian Inheritance coursework, every worker receives exactly the same pay regardless of productivity, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, and scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nutrixus's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Carrieism.

Nutrixus is ranked 180,654^th in the world and 501^st in The Communist Bloc for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 28.94 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
