The Theocracy of Maryani is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Fujiwara Katsuki with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 3.994 billion Maryanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hokyuaidou. The average income tax rate is 99.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Maryanian economy, worth 801 trillion Manis 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, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 200,613 Manis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Maryani's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, the latest national park is visited by more sharks than people, the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, and government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maryani's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Buddhism-Shinto.

Maryani is ranked 3,670th in the world and 92nd in the South Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 149.03 quips per hour.
