The Republic of Maracanau is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by Mendonza with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, otherworldly petting zoo, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 902 million Maracanauans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pindoretama. The average income tax rate is 66.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Maracanauan economy, worth 64.7 trillion bitcoins a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 71,681 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cheap goods stamped "Made In Dàguó" are increasingly rare, the 'sing-a-long with Mendonza' album is a popular souvenir, there's a big brother in every prison, and foreigners with shady pasts are fleeing the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maracanau's national animal is the Arara-Azul, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Maracanau is ranked 72,380^th in the world and 680^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,946.55 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
