The Confederacy of Maisiagala is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jan Długosz with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 1.764 billion Maisiagalans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 52.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Maisiagalan economy, worth 69.9 trillion litas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 39,632 litas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Liberals and conservatives try to disqualify each other's candidates on the grounds that "their ideas would never work in the real world", political candidates who don't release their birth certificates are presumed to have been born in Maxtopia, the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, and military barracks resemble five-star hotels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maisiagala's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Catholicism.
Maisiagala is ranked 236,604th in the world and 141st in Anteria for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 47.56 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
