The Free Cities of Maanenland is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Premier Consul Alex Bouchard with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 25.841 billion Maanlanders enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port Franc. The average income tax rate is 28.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Maanenic economy, worth a remarkable 8,016 trillion Livres a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 310,218 Livres, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams, the nation locks people up and tells them they're mad for compassion's sake, family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, and aeroplane cockpits no longer have altimeters or airspeed indicators. Crime is totally unknown. Maanenland's national animal is the Fou de Bassan, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Maanenland is ranked 47,196^th in the world and 539^th in Europe for Lowest Crime Rates, with 75.02 law-abiding acts per hour.
