The United Kingdom of Bostoniax is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Phoenix Wolfsong with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 11.521 billion Bostoniaxians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wolfhaven. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Bostoniaxian economy, worth a remarkable 3,952 trillion Gils a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 343,065 Gils, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year, children's daycare starts at the crack of dawn, a new religious movement claims that people's souls are stored in phosphorus, and politicians ponder for at least a minute when asked if they would like sugar in their tea. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bostoniax's national animal is the Rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Naturism.

Bostoniax is ranked 146,360th in the world and 5,868th in Osiris for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 1,275.46 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
