The Fantastic DutchGarth Kingdom of Vylixan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Sitethief with an iron fist, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 10.054 billion Vylixanians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greater Lynxa City. The average income tax rate is 97.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Vylixanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,165 trillion Xanvylis a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Information Technology industry. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an impressive 115,885 Xanvylis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, candidates make campaign speeches at the funerals of former rivals, when conspiracy theorists talk about "government moles" they're referring to mysteriously mobile skin lesions, and politicians and casino owners who so much as wander into the same room are arrested on the spot. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vylixan's national animal is the Naxilyv, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is None.

Vylixan is ranked 271,076th in the world and 3,786th in the Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -248.9 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
