The Protectorate of New Maxta is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Vycar Darkfire with an even hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, digital currency, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate population of 16.608 billion New Maxtans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 81.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong New Maxtan economy, worth a remarkable 1,720 trillion Maxxens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 103,612 Maxxens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, the tenet of free speech is held dear, judicial torture is outsourced overseas, and politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Maxta's national animal is the Bull Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Maxta is ranked 222,837^th in the world and 4,235^th in the South Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 48.52 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
