The Grotesque Playground of Mackintosh is a behemoth, cultured nation, ruled by Magnificent Bastard with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, digital currency, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 50.972 billion Mackintoshians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The minute, corrupt, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Wasteland. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Mackintoshian economy, worth an astonishing 39,965 trillion managerial prerogatives a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is a breathtaking 784,073 managerial prerogatives, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,406,135 per year while the poor average 114,425, a ratio of 29.8 to 1.

The taste of spices can sail a thousand ships, starving citizens are offered nuclear pasta, the army lives rent-free in foreigners' heads and houses, and you can touch grass without leaving your computer. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Mackintosh's national animal is the worker, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Roman Catholic.

Mackintosh is ranked 69^th in the world and 5^th in Wysteria for Highest Average Incomes, with 784,073.12 Standard Monetary Units.
