The Emirate of Vylixan Tartarus 28 is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its fear of technology, public floggings, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 8.368 billion Vylixan Tartarus 28ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 34.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Vylixan Tartarus 28ian economy, worth 463 trillion pesos 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 Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, Soda Sales, and Gambling. 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 55,346 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, many parents are becoming frustrated with their children's choices in spouses, and concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vylixan Tartarus 28's national animal is the giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Vylixan Tartarus 28 is ranked 112,533^rd in the world and 145^th in Vylixan Prime for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,749.2 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
