The Republic of Mastercard Incorporated is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.636 billion Mastercard Incorporatedians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Purchase. The average income tax rate is 33.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Mastercard Incorporatedian economy, worth 153 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is 94,130 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Paper and ink publications are subsidised by the government to keep them in the black, politicians bribe ten-year-old geniuses to sit their aptitude tests, teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough, and election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mastercard Incorporated's national animal is the shares, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mastercard Incorporated is ranked 116,585^th in the world and 195^th in OTC Markets for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,842.04 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
