The United Republic of Maeiland is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President JW Tan-So with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful population of 19.352 billion Maeilanders enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maeimetro. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Maeilandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,739 trillion Dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 193,225 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air, bins outnumber trees in city parks, it's been a banner year for local vexillology, and the ruling party has a devil of a time keeping order in the ranks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maeiland's national animal is the Crane, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Maeiland is ranked 283,796^th in the world and 5,200^th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -13.27 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
