The Constitutional Monarchy of Senkent Mace is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 10.849 billion Senkent Maceans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Senkent Macean economy, worth 606 trillion Pangs a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 55,931 Pangs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political speeches that drill deep into bureaucratic fine detail could be said to be a little boring, card players are calling the government's bluff on anti-gambling legislation, private law firms are unheard of, and prolonged government investigations are a common revenge tactic among spurned significant others. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Senkent Mace's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Senkent Mace is ranked 15,739^th in the world and 345^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,032.59 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
