Fyxoom (English: fə-SHOME; Eevo: /fəˈʃɔʊm/), officially the Fyxoom Federation (Eevo: að Eegoþlu Fyxoom /əð ɛɪˈgɔθʟy fəˈʃɔʊm/), is the largest Eevophone country in the continent of Cualuav. It is mainly inspired by the United States (though not meant to represent it).

Ideas

Fyxoom allows the formation of local communities with local laws to an extent, which people can exit freely. There is a public education system so that parents can't indoctrinate their children within the communities.

Regional stereotypes:

  • Western Fyxoom: cultural rebels
  • Cnollta: rural and backward
  • Eastern Fyxoom: old elites
  • Sirahda area: neurotic
  • Lleeband: exuberant Silicon Valley culture
