The Democratic States of Mariarty is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 15.448 billion Mariartyians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mariarty City. The average income tax rate is 78.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mariartyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,325 trillion Euros a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,816 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, passionate nomination battles are often as intense as general elections, citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections, and girls who wear lipstick are berated for pandering to male gazes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mariarty's national animal is the Velociraptor, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Mariarty is ranked 214,805^th in the world and 3,332^nd in The East Pacific for Most Authoritarian, with 530.63 milliStalins.
