The Most Serene Republic of Martor is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its avant-garde cinema, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 269 million Martorians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ville De Jeanne D'Arc. The average income tax rate is 64.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Martorian economy, worth 16.2 trillion Aurums a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,351 Aurums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The main interest rates change daily based on the latest news story, interest in globalism never flags, road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, and cancer rates amongst the richest in society are inexplicably on the rise. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Martor's national animal is the Tessa, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Martor is ranked 39,565^th in the world and 55^th in Karma for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 753.78 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
