The Emirate of Great Mataram is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and triple-decker prams. The cynical, devout population of 1.269 billion Mataramen are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yogyakarta. The average income tax rate is 66.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Mataram economy, worth 120 trillion dinars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 95,020 dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Politicians are often found scavenging bins at night to supplement their income, politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, students who do not recite the national anthem each morning have to drop and give their teacher 50, and the "war on terror" doesn't seem to be making Mataramen any less frightened. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Great Mataram's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Sunni Islam.
Great Mataram is ranked 51,083rd in the world and 1,571st in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,267.62 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
