The Most Handsome of Marrabuk is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by General-Admiral Mat Hardy with an even hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 15.197 billion Marrabukians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Los Aminah. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Marrabukian economy, worth a remarkable 3,129 trillion Marrabuk Dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 205,897 Marrabuk Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Armed police are cracking down on untaxed collectable-card-trading in local junior schools, pedal-powered removal vans are a popular Maxxmas gift for the children of separated parents, General-Admiral Mat Hardy's latest speech included a bizarre reference to MaxWow incontinence pads being 50% more absorbent than the next leading brand, and the Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Marrabuk's national animal is the Electric Marrabuk Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Spiky Nose Hair.

Marrabuk is ranked 10,134th in the world and 152nd in The East Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 205,897.77 Standard Monetary Units.
