The District of Marcellus is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Liard with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12.341 billion Districtors live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.4%.
The strong Marcellusian economy, worth 715 trillion aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 57,999 aurums, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 312,110 per year while the poor average 5,609, a ratio of 55.6 to 1.
The price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm, purported secret military bases are dismissed by Liard to be highly-advanced toilet factories, Marcellus has designated District City as its capital city, and Liard has just been declared ruler of Marcellus in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Marcellus's national animal is the bovina, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Marcellus is ranked 289,173rd in the world and 5th in Tarawa for Lowest Crime Rates, with 33.4 law-abiding acts per hour.
