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 national health service, infamous sell-swords, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 7.595 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 98.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Macrasetian economy, worth a remarkable 2,867 trillion pescas a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 377,601 pescas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The Cerilaiva Film Festival recently voted 'Macrasetian Getting Hit By Football' as best film, the Macrasetian football team for the Maxxmas ceasefire consists only of Intelligence Corps personnel, political scientists despair as the national mascot election eclipses all others in voter enthusiasm, and interest in globalism never flags. 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 5,107^th in the world and 28^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 9,639.9 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
