The Queendom of Marceline is a mammoth, safe nation, renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 8.429 billion Marcelineans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 33.8%.

The large but inefficient Marcelinean economy, worth 332 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,493 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

The "feminist protest" defence is increasingly common for cases of armed robbery, you're only as old as you feel, prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, and athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Marceline's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Marceline is ranked 258,529^th in the world and 3,158^th in Remembrance for Highest Average Incomes, with 39,493.22 Standard Monetary Units.
