The People's Republic of Maggriststan is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Felix Lucentsson with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 6.55 billion Maggriststanians are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ristholm. The average income tax rate is 90.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Maggriststanian economy, worth 902 trillion Maggriststanian Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 137,700 Maggriststanian Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fat taxes on red meat has left the beef industry extra lean, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Maggriststan, police pull people off the street for even mentioning the word plane, and refugees from other nations are flocking to Maggriststan's border. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maggriststan's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secularism.

Maggriststan is ranked 9,335^th in the world and 217^th in The East Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 91.16 on the Human Development Index.
