The New Remixed Empire of Matamorosia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Rei Пykoи VII with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, sprawling nuclear power plants, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 6.558 billion Matamorosiani enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Matamoros. The average income tax rate is 69.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Matamorosianic economy, worth a remarkable 1,139 trillion Matamorosian Pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 173,699 Matamorosian Pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Happiness is all being miserable together, the government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists, and the tinfoil-hat crowd also recommend tinfoil wallets. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Matamorosia's national animal is the Polandball, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Matamotosian Catholic and Islam.

Matamorosia is ranked 27,659th in the world and 153rd in Europe for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 18,971.44 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
