The V͔̞̟o͉̟̦͈i̫͖̹̠̰̝̙ͅd͔͚̫̫͝ ͜͠ of Mayo and Other Condiments is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by ASNS with an iron fist, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, flagrant waste-dumping, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 16.494 billion condiments are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurorum. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Condiment economy, worth an astonishing 13,475 trillion Denarii a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 817,006 Denarii, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.
Veterans in wheelchairs are left waist-deep in rice paddies to gather grain, the dead fish in the national rivers aren't decomposing because even bacteria can't survive the levels of toxicity, stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, and authorities are looking for a stool pigeon to rat out who is stealing food from pigeon toilets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mayo and Other Condiments's national animal is the Dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Mayo and Other Condiments is ranked 228th in the world and 5th in the Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 22,327.93 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
