The Pink Holy of The Marlands is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Santa Claus with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.847 billion Marlandi hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The average income tax rate is 77.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Marlandi economy, worth 602 trillion Brains a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 103,100 Brains, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Marine biology students are shocked to discover that a whale is a mammal, kids these days know how to throw a proper punch, nose plugs are the latest Marlandi fashion accessory, and Santa Claus's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Marlands's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Athyism.
The Marlands is ranked 103,500th in the world and 1,507th in The East Pacific for Most Extreme, scoring 23.16 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
