The Principality of Texian Mining Concern 4 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 10.309 billion Texian Miners are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Texian economy, worth a remarkable 1,155 trillion rupees a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 112,080 rupees, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 341,342 per year while the poor average 28,562, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Toy versions of heroin paraphernalia let kids pretend to be their favourite TV characters, punitive tariffs protect local industry, trails to natural wonders are littered with trash from reality film crews, and Texian husbands are dead good at fathering kids. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Texian Mining Concern 4's national animal is the snail, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Texian Mining Concern 4 is ranked 86,992^nd in the world and 200^th in Chicken overlords for Most Beautiful Environments, with 584.2 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
