The Judean Empire of Maricoen is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King BB with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working population of 8.08 billion BBians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jerusalem. The average income tax rate is 93.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Maricoenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,565 trillion Shekels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 193,745 Shekels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

This summer's chart-toppers sound almost the same as last year's, chins in the royal family get bigger with each generation, a shocking number of estate planners are beneficiaries of their clients' wills, and viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maricoen's national animal is the European Bison, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Judaism.

Maricoen is ranked 9,208^th in the world and 2^nd in Citreon for Lowest Crime Rates, with 102.58 law-abiding acts per hour.
