The Democratic Republic of Mapico is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Leafy with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and public floggings. The compassionate population of 10.113 billion Mapicoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rain. The average income tax rate is 94.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Mapicoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,827 trillion Maps a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 180,696 Maps, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The atmosphere in Mapicoan boardrooms is turning more gay, space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, school lockers are filled with fancy underwear, and this year's hottest fashion trend is the Lese Majeste collection. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mapico's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mapico is ranked 53,874^th in the world and 968^th in the South Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 4,061.62 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
