The Republic of Xenos Sofee is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 308 million Xenos Sofeeans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 71.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Xenos Sofeean economy, worth 11.4 trillion Dollars 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 led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. Average income is 37,121 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All beauty contests have been banned, over a third of the seats in sports stadiums have been removed to make room for female-only commodes, the masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience, and children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "love and peace!" as a way of life. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Xenos Sofee's national animal is the Xenosian Squid, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Xenos Sofee is ranked 82,331st in the world and 1,111th in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 19.87 flags saluted per person per day.
