The Republic of MC Ride is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 2.805 billion MC Rideans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 52.8%.

The powerhouse MC Ridean economy, worth 260 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,769 marks, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians bribe ten-year-old geniuses to sit their aptitude tests, card players are calling the government's bluff on anti-gambling legislation, beggars lack pockets for spare change, and clerics are taught that silence is golden and duct tape is silver. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MC Ride's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

MC Ride is ranked 33,431^st in the world and 6^th in DatPiff for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 50.74 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
