Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Land of Mari is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Vance Guy with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ban on automobiles, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.462 billion Land of Marians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Annapaltimore. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Land of Marian economy, worth a remarkable 1,261 trillion Old Bays a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 195,273 Old Bays, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, oxygen is commonly known as 'breathinium', both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, and Brown Sugar 101 is a popular course at community colleges. Crime is totally unknown. Land of Mari's national animal is the Crab, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Land of Mari is ranked 5,822^nd in the world and 150^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 527.02 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
