The Grand Duchy of Macorki is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.303 billion Macorkians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. The average income tax rate is 28.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Macorkian economy, worth 549 trillion Macorkis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 166,213 Macorkis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

School lockers are filled with fancy underwear, referenda are held for every conceivable government action, government ministers sport new billboards that read 'Will Trade Votes for Private Members' Bill Support', and quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces. Crime is totally unknown. Macorki's national animal is the blood ape, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Macorki is ranked 67,716^th in the world and 3,868^th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.44 law-abiding acts per hour.
