The Laissez-Faire Economy of Vulxo is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Alexan with an iron fist, and notable for its teetotalling pirates, complete lack of prisons, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 6.628 billion Vulxoians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government prioritizes Industry, although Defense, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mahtava. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 55.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Vulxoist economy, worth a remarkable 2,316 trillion digital bits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 349,486 digital bits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,168,336 per year while the poor average 4,517, a ratio of 701 to 1.

Expats return home to a government devoid of social and environmental agencies, health-conscious denizens drink their dogs' water, homesickness is thought to be a waterborne illness, and drugs containing the compound "oleum de serpens" are being sold to cancer patients. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Vulxo's national animal is the Caracal, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Stalkerian.

Vulxo is ranked 183,100th in the world and 4th in Bottom Right for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
