The Estado Flaneliano of Macovi is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Supreme Dictator Orion Pinheiro with an iron fist, and renowned for its teetotalling pirates, parental licensing program, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.357 billion Macovians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Northern Macovénia. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Macovian economy, worth a remarkable 1,863 trillion handfuls a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 199,144 handfuls, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians can't accept birthday presents from their own children, elected officials who disagree with Supreme Dictator Orion Pinheiro have a lot of accidents, it's surprisingly hard to find pictures of the bad haircuts from Supreme Dictator Orion Pinheiro's childhood, and retirement is back in business. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Macovi's national animal is the bird ɪ, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Macovi is ranked 225,551^st in the world and 75^th in Flanelistan for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 275.19 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
