The Armed Republic of Plavix is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 7.052 billion Plavixians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 65.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Plavixian economy, worth 803 trillion bitcoins 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. 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 an impressive 113,869 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are constantly disappointed to find their nuisance neighbours are still alive, they who do not work shall not eat, there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality, and most believe it doesn't hurt to embrace free trade. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Plavix's national animal is the kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Plavix is ranked 102,011th in the world and 1,152nd in Balder for Most Stationary, with 418.94374576472 days.
