The Highland Clan of MacIntyra is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic population of 27.266 billion MacIntyrans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.9%.

The strong MacIntyran economy, worth a remarkable 1,055 trillion guineas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 38,706 guineas, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, extreme political groups are outlawed, many parents are becoming frustrated with their children's choices in spouses, and crooks and people with too many kids are being kicked out of the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MacIntyra's national animal is the Undecided.

MacIntyra is ranked 140,299^th in the world and 1^st in Shetland for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,249.44 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
