The Casual State of Makiland is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Mighty Powerful Makiman with an iron fist, and remarkable for its hatred of cheese, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 24.192 billion Makilandians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blueberrymuffintop City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Makilandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,976 trillion Blueberry Jam Jars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an impressive 164,370 Blueberry Jam Jars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The carbon tax fund gladly supplies warm blankets when the poor can't pay their heating bills, the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air, the "temporary replacement bus service" is now a permanent fixture, and laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Makiland's national animal is the Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Makiland is ranked 2,123rd in the world and 2nd in Hippy Haven for Most Stationary, with 4,026.70575624 days.
