The Nation-Corporation of Magnus Pecunia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by CEO Goldman Greenback with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, unlimited-speed roads, and feral children. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 6.878 billion Moneymen are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Industry, although Defense and Healthcare are also considered important, while Welfare and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Metropolis Monetaris. The average income tax rate is 2.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Magni Pecuni economy, worth a remarkable 1,080 trillion gold bars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 157,112 gold bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.
Believers must practice religion behind church doors lest the government smite them with a mighty fine, terrified neighbors cower behind concertina wire and machine gun nests, street gangs rule most of the nation's major cities, and stray dogs and children root through the trash for snacks. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Magnus Pecunia's national animal is the stock market bull, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Market Worship.
Magnus Pecunia is ranked 274,535th in the world and 3rd in The Northlands for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -10.95 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
