The Federation of Maws is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, barren, inhospitable landscape, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.019 billion Mawsians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Welfare, although Education, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 28.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Mawsian economy, worth 43.1 trillion Drool Bottles a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 42,277 Drool Bottles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Corporate lawyers are switching careers to the more lucrative field of green politics, religion makes people horny, the Snapgram channel "Embarrassing Baby Leader Pics" has made Leader's mom a celebrity, and all government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of Maws City. Crime is well under control. Maws's national animal is the Furry, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Maws is ranked 249,544^th in the world and 3^rd in Bellumburgh for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 95.24 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
