The Supine Socialist Slothland of Maowi is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by the Maowese populace with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.956 billion Maowese hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bradypus City. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Maowese economy, worth a remarkable 1,355 trillion toenails 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 led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 136,174 toenails, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The World Supine Socialist Slothland Games have been won again by Maowi as no other country cares enough to compete, sea side cafes are required by law to close during summer, businesses are scrambling to adapt to the government's mandate that 'time and measurement no longer exist', and politicians tend to jump ship to whichever party is currently leading in the polls. Crime is totally unknown. Maowi's national animal is the sloth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Maowi is ranked 274,228^th in the world and 1,344^th in Europeia for Most Patriotic, with 0.61 flags saluted per person per day.
