The State of Mandag is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 17.365 billion Mandagians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — prioritizes Welfare, with Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 72.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Mandagian economy, worth 97.1 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Cheese Exports, Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 5,593 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has little issue with allowing its citizens to languish in foreign jails, no-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium, soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, and the police double as repo men. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mandag's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mandag is ranked 51,000th in the world and 318th in 0000 for Most Stationary, with 882.1632895818 days.
