The Queendom of Mateia is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, flagrant waste-dumping, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 6.477 billion Mateians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Mateian economy, worth a remarkable 1,537 trillion florins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 237,333 florins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 706,717 per year while the poor average 62,449, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.
Recognised healthcare professionals treat diabetes with a grain of sugar in a barrel of water, motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours, cooking with water and baking soda is considered patent infringement, and protests are illegal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mateia's national animal is the dog, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Mateia is ranked 12,820th in the world and 98th in SAFT Puppets for Lowest Crime Rates, with 96.77 law-abiding acts per hour.
