The Gameficated LAN Party of Vylixan Paichnidia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Steve Russell with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, pith helmet sales, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 9.91 billion Vylixan Paichnidians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of LAN Party. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Vylixan Paichnidian economy, worth 916 trillion Diamonds a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,451 Diamonds, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 487,969 per year while the poor average 9,314, a ratio of 52.4 to 1.
Hunters often become the hunted, virtually all of the country's economic activity takes place in LAN Party, Steve Russell's office has a newly installed Max-Man arcade game programmed by a 5th-grader, and agricultural employees work for peanuts. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Vylixan Paichnidia's national animal is the Mario, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Gameficarion.
Vylixan Paichnidia is ranked 56,890th in the world and 3rd in Video games for Smartest Citizens, with 40.57 quips per hour.
