The Kingdom of Niximia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by King Alex III with an iron fist, and notable for its triple-decker prams, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.184 billion Niximians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zelek. The average income tax rate is 38.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Niximian economy, worth 102 trillion Nixes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,164 Nixes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The sun rises an hour later on border communities, on-duty Air Niximia flight attendants are usually seen napping in first class, there is a disproportionate number of poor people in prison, and a soldier's body is a temple. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Niximia's national animal is the Niximian dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Niximia is ranked 184,481^st in the world and 616^th in 10000 Islands for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
