The Fiefdom of Magnaplan is a large, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 67 million Magnaplanians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. The average income tax rate is 9.8%.

The very strong Magnaplanian economy, worth 3.94 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Retail. Average income is 58,778 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Claiming to have performed the Heimlich Maneuver is a popular defense for assault charges, condos feature wall-mounted cages containing endangered animals, the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, and students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Magnaplan's national animal is the emu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Magnaplan is ranked 132,465^th in the world and 114^th in Shiseballs for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 72.8 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
