The Socialist State of Marshabliv is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by President Marsew with a fair hand, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.326 billion Marshablivians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Marshiv City. The average income tax rate is 57.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Marshiv economy, worth a remarkable 1,172 trillion Peoples' Dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,976 Peoples' Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lending money has become a major liability, the leading national news source is 'my cousin Billy-Bob on MyFace', advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, and the new 'Who Wants To Be A Politician' election debate auditions are more popular than the debates themselves. Crime is totally unknown. Marshabliv's national animal is the Marshadow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Marsism.

Marshabliv is ranked 152,830th in the world and 107th in The Union of Democratic States for Most Stationary, with 149.87114019352 days.
