The Floating Island of Xontacia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 15.635 billion Xontacians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Xontacia City. The average income tax rate is 90.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Xontacian economy, worth a remarkable 1,484 trillion Dung-Drops a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 94,954 Dung-Drops, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Eckie-Ecola has declared that their soda poop is The Real Thing, glamping Xontacians won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi, one-man canoes fitted with the latest tracking technology leave no room for one man, and the acceptance of acupuncture and other alternative therapies has needled the scientific community. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Xontacia's national animal is the Edgehog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Xontacia is ranked 10,550th in the world and 556th in Balder for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 90.81 Effective Tax Rate.
