The Imperial Commonwealth of Makkathran is a gargantuan, cultured nation, remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 13.769 billion Makkathrani are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Makkathran City. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Makkathrani economy, worth a remarkable 2,942 trillion commons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 213,673 commons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Holiday light displays just aren't the same without seizure-inducing strobe effects, sociologists can charge whatever fee they like as the nation tries to find itself, The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries, and census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Makkathran's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Makkathran is ranked 3,153rd in the world and 130th in Balder for Most Cultured, scoring 212 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
