| - The Xai Ascendancy, also known as Xyon, is a theocratic oligarchy located in the Rocky Mountains of North America. The Ascendancy spans some 30,000 square kilometers (18,641 square miles), and possess a population of 15.1 million citizens, with another 2.6 million living abroad in 10,000 km2 (6,213 sq mi) of colonies in foreign countries under Xai administration. The bulk of Xai territory consisting of its capital city, Oxida Nova, is located underground, and is walled off to foreign visitation. Given that the Ascendancy controls only territories within walled off cities such as the capital and the colonies, the nation is a purely urban one. The Ascendancy is also one of the few totally ethnically and culturally homogenous nations in the world.

| - The Xai Ascendancy, also known as Xyon, is a theocratic oligarchy located in the Rocky Mountains of North America. The Ascendancy spans some 30,000 square kilometers (18,641 square miles), and possess a population of 15.1 million citizens, with another 2.6 million living abroad in 10,000 km2 (6,213 sq mi) of colonies in foreign countries under Xai administration. The bulk of Xai territory consisting of its capital city, Oxida Nova, is located underground, and is walled off to foreign visitation. Given that the Ascendancy controls only territories within walled off cities such as the capital and the colonies, the nation is a purely urban one. The Ascendancy is also one of the few totally ethnically and culturally homogenous nations in the world. Founded in 1829 by escaped slave and convict, Ulysses Morgan, the Ascendancy was built using technology far ahead of anything possibly within mankind's current understanding. While on the run for crimes committed in the past, Morgan discovered ultra technologies hidden in the Rocky Mountains, aboard a vessel of extraterristrial origin. Though information collected by Morgan then indicated the race that built the ship was exstinct, it did not prevent him from stripping it of all knowledge, and creating the Xai whom he now leads. Possessing technologies millions of years ahead of anything on Earth, the Xai who inhabit the nation are today the most powerful people in recorded history. Remaining isolated from external contact up until it openly established foreign relations with the United Nations in 2000, the Ascendancy's views and beliefs are largely considered "antiquated", though to the Xai citizens, they view the modern world as godless, immoral, and without redemption, and their xenophobic and fascist beliefs have resulted in cold relations with most of the world, including its largest and most dangerous neighbor, the United States. All of these views ironic given their father's violent past. However, the sheer technological and genetic superiority of the Xai have prevented any wars that would result in a one-sided victory for the Ascendancy. The Ascendancy is an ultra-futuristic industrial power with a national GDP that surpasses all but the United States, China, and Japan, though the actual science behind their economy is poorly understood, meaning that the Ascendancy could be far wealthier than assumed. Given the technologies at its desposal, the Ascendancy is easily capable of out-producing every nation in the world using its highly efficent automated factories, and hard-working population of middle-class Xai citizens. Because of these many traits, the Xai Ascendancy is often regarded as a superpower, if not the predominant superpower of the world.
