The Corporate Empire of Machstaat is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Jennifer Jennings with an even hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, frequent executions, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 11.411 billion Machstaatians 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 relatively small, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greatropolis. The average income tax rate is 63.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Machstaatian economy, worth a remarkable 4,325 trillion E-Credits a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 379,076 E-Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Old folks yearn for the days when young people saw bloodthirsty death matches with their own eyes instead of through a screen, teenage male videogamers often suffer repetitive strain wrist injuries, pocket calculators are seen as status symbols for the ostentatiously wealthy, and assault rifles sized for 7-year-olds are a frighteningly popular export. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Machstaat's national animal is the amoeba, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Machstaat is ranked 12,159th in the world and 686th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 110 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
