The State of Toksik is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 22.112 billion Toksikians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 55.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Toksikian economy, worth 578 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 26,157 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Toksik has designated Capital Heights as its capital city and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Toksik in an international press conference. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Toksik's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Toksik is ranked 28,498th in the world and 7th in Belmopan for Most Stationary, with 1,398.2664314978 days.
