The Theocracy of Maryani is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Emperor Fujiwara Katsuki with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, ban on automobiles, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 3.874 billion Maryanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hokyuaidou. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Maryanian economy, worth 762 trillion Manis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 196,721 Manis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government loves seeing the little people fight, the nation has an international reputation for compassion, solid-gold toilets are Maryanian prisons' least expensive furnishings, and ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maryani's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Buddhism-Shinto.

Maryani is ranked 267,244^th in the world and 3,996^th in the South Pacific for Most Conservative, scoring 33.33 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
