The Commonwealth of Maith is a large, cultured nation, renowned for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working, democratic population of 151 million Maithians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 8.7%.

The strong Maithian economy, worth 11.5 trillion mazals a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 76,358 mazals, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Drug-related crimes carry the death penalty, computer users are buried daily in thousands of unsolicited emails, fat-shaming is now public policy, and abortion is only legal in unusual circumstances. Crime is almost non-existent. Maith's national animal is the tuxedo cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Maith is ranked 92,995^th in the world and 322^nd in Europeia for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 12,310.04 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
