The Assembly and Demos of Madrocea is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by President Carol Trajan with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, keen interest in outer space, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 30.042 billion Madroceans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cardalia. The average income tax rate is 4.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Madrocean economy, worth a remarkable 6,495 trillion Atlantean Drachmas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 216,226 Atlantean Drachmas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Short shrift is being given to applications for political asylum from illegal immigrants, you're never too young to learn how to lie with confidence, young children are learning advanced physics to scientifically disprove the existence of Santa Claus, and new pilots are regularly reminded that they are more expendable than their planes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Madrocea's national animal is the Raven, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Madrocea is ranked 8,642^nd in the world and 1^st in Atlantis for Highest Average Incomes, with 216,226.72 Standard Monetary Units.
