“Monogamy will not be possible for several generations”

The Viable Genetic Base of Mariposa Colony is a massive, pleasant nation, ruled by Wilson Granger with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working population of 4.566 billion Colonists 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of SS Mariposa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.0%.

The strong Colonist economy, worth 291 trillion DNAS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 63,757 DNAS, with the richest citizens earning 9.4 times as much as the poorest.

The government merely sends empty platitudes whenever natural disasters strike foreign nations, rumor has it that Wilson Granger has won three lotteries in a row, doctors are encouraged to 'pull the plug' any time the government has a budget crisis, and concerned environmentalists wipe away their tears with tissues sourced from Tasmanian old-growth redwoods. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Mariposa Colony's national animal is the Clone, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Mariposa Colony is ranked 242,742^nd in the world and 137^th in United Earth Space Probe Agency for Lowest Crime Rates, with 54.01 law-abiding acts per hour.
