The Colony of Macintosh 128 is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, cynical population of 1.35 billion Macintosh 128ians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.3%.

The very strong Macintosh 128ian economy, worth 78.2 trillion baht a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 57,945 baht, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 300,506 per year while the poor average 6,053, a ratio of 49.6 to 1.

Crime is a problem. Macintosh 128's national animal is the bison, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Macintosh 128 is ranked 209,247^th in the world and 23^rd in Retrocomputers for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
