The Federal Republic of Martzbrieg is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.059 billion Martzbriegians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tarowood. The average income tax rate is 86.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Martzbriegian economy, worth 468 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 115,349 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are bombarded with advertising from their compulsory miniature radios, incarcerated crime lords manage their empires from massage tables, sex-ed is child's play, and hospitals in Martzbrieg are too busy serving the needs of the South Pacific to see Martzbriegians. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Martzbrieg's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Martzbrieg is ranked 115,255^th in the world and 2,099^th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,132.04 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
