The 1st Catholic Roman Empire of Markland and Newfoundland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Mark I with an iron fist, and renowned for its closed borders, parental licensing program, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 11.935 billion Markish are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Markland. The average income tax rate is 67.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Markish economy, worth a remarkable 1,295 trillion Markish Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,507 Markish Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.
People reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, men who wear pink are seen as dangerously unmanly, decaying farm hamlets have twice the representation of major urban areas, and enterprising game developers are a hop, skip, and a double-jump away from arrest. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Markland and Newfoundland's national animal is the Rabbit, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.
Markland and Newfoundland is ranked 159,901st in the world and 1st in Catholic Roman Empire of Markland for Most Stationary, with 126.6992591902 days.
