The Armed Republic of Maott is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, hatred of cheese, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, humorless population of 49.112 billion Maottians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yoomi. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Maottian economy, worth an astonishing 10,665 trillion Credits in twelve monthly payments a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 217,160 Credits in twelve monthly payments, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pop stars who make it big overseas are hailed as economic heroes, the government forces Maottians to eat their vegetables, the overhead luggage compartment is often full, and the most notorious criminals are given the Consequences of Your Actions Award. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maott's national animal is the Kestral, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is whatever people want to have faith in.

Maott is ranked 1,706^th in the world and 74^th in The North Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 209.6 quips per hour.
