The Southern Ring Republic of Macrasetia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Imperatrix Pacis Celina Karisea with a fair hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, daily referendums, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 6.339 billion Macrasetians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cerilaiva. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Macrasetian economy, worth a remarkable 2,191 trillion pescas a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 345,689 pescas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, plain-clothes police officers follow Dàguó tourists everywhere they go, the request to "give us our daily bread" can only be fulfilled six days out of seven, and Imperatrix Pacis Celina Karisea steals from the rich and gives to the needy. Crime is totally unknown. Macrasetia's national animal is the hellbender, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Macraesiph.

Macrasetia is ranked 74,301^st in the world and 150^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,107.67 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
