The Empire of XST is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its public floggings, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 2.355 billion Toriis have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Desu City. The average income tax rate is 57.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Torii economy, worth 385 trillion kurumas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 163,600 kurumas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.
Earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, airport users are more worried about radiation than terrorism, only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens, and police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds. Crime is totally unknown. XST's national animal is the tuna, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
XST is ranked 27,441st in the world and 820th in The North Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 5,993.92 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
