The Free Land of Muaratia

“Taxation is theft, now get back to work!”

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

The Free Land of Muaratia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Archibald Batakan with a fair hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, complete lack of prisons, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 3.12 billion Muaratians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Industry, with Education also on the agenda, while Environment and Law & Order aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of NP Exchange Center. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Muaratian economy, worth 657 trillion Muaratian New Pesos a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 210,896 Muaratian New Pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 611,659 per year while the poor average 57,591, a ratio of 10.6 to 1.

Funeral mourners ridesharing with the deceased are encouraged to sit on the coffin to save room, a flying elephant and Archibald Batakan share the same nickname, the government has ordered a moratorium on referenda, and frequent broken zippers have resulted in safety pins making a fashion comeback. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Muaratia's national animal is the Cobbus Duck, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Free Market.

Muaratia is ranked 759^th in the world and 22^nd in The North Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 68.57 Obesity Rate.
