The Commonwealth of Maith is a mid-sized, cultured nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 79 million Maithians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 8.2%.

The strong Maithian economy, worth 5.81 trillion mazals a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Automobile Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 73,556 mazals, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Posters on 'Maithian Values' advise against being proud of Maith, teenagers can't decide if they're more embarrassed by their parents or the country's leader, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, and the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Maith's national animal is the tuxedo cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Maith is ranked 162,458^th in the world and 707^th in Europeia for Fattest Citizens, with 9.82 Obesity Rate.
