The United Consensus of Nexia is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Runa Aethirshire with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.976 billion Nexians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nexus. The average income tax rate is 78.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Nexian economy, worth 511 trillion Credits a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,599 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One does not simply walk into the tundra, small patches of desolate land across the world are part of Nexian sovereign territory, embarrassed police officers wear spandex and carry net guns, and soldiers with colourful mohawks make themselves perfect targets for snipers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nexia's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Nexia is ranked 203,796^th in the world and 8,388^th in The North Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -6 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
