Internal
Mission
Early in the 22nd Century the nationstate still known as Toopoxia was bought out by private Technology firm Liberty, specialising in the construction of Artifical Intelligence computers with the aim of approaching the technological singularity, Toopoxias old capitol is home to one of the worlds most advanced Random Event Calculators tied into a complex Artificial Intelligence, referred to as REG X (Random Event Generator eXperimental)
Goverment
REG X is responsible for the daily lives of all Toopoxicans, since 2267 it has been responsible for all departments of the goverment (excluding Defence which is controlled by a less advanced but still powerful AI) In all respects Toopoxia is ruled by a benevolant Dictatorship, for as long as the REG X remains subordinate to the needs of humanity.
Some complaints slip through the REG X's heavy control on media, comments have been expressed about the dire level of civil rights the people are granted, the extremity to which the goverment reacts to civil disobedience and random conjecture of REG X's overall motives.
Social Front
Toopoxicans are used to the lack of liberties granted to them, having previously been ruled by a Fascist Dictatorship before REG X, the idea that leadership through Artificial Intelligence is a good idea has been drilled into the hearts and minds of all Toopoxicans, people are strictly regulated by the Goverment, each child is chipped at a young age to moniter their activities, location and health.
Toopoxicans are free to benefit from the improvements Artifical Intelligence offers, state subsidised cybernetic and genetic improvements can build upon natural intelligence, strength and practicality, in many cases you will find that it will be difficult to find employment without such modification, especially in the case of the Military who are heavily advanced upon with modifications.
Toopoxias previous excellence in the field of the arts has somewhat diminished, its lack of practicality made it a highly unadvisable career move by the Liberty Firm, however, a recent trend has been in arts among the poor, as it is among the very few careers which do not require non-natural modification.
Troubles
Toopoxia is by no means a Paradise, suspicion casually floats about the streets of the Hab Cities over the overall goals of the REG X, ranging from casual rumor and conjecture to outright violent protest (reports of needless hostile action by the Military has been reported and dismissed) some join in anti REG protests to further the goals of liberal political movements, all of which lack the strength to protest their own message.
Food management has, in recent years, become a difficulty, Toopoxias location being surrounded by desert, a typical meal will consist of a practical but foul tasting synthetic meal, providing the required minerals and vitamins for a healthy life, those who can afford food are typically targetted by thieves, who are then immediatly prosecuted by the Police.
