The Helizi Puppet of Mapleleaves40 is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The quiet, industrious population of 4.742 billion Mapleleaves40ians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.0%.

The Mapleleaves40ian economy, worth 245 trillion forks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,745 forks, with the richest citizens earning 9.0 times as much as the poorest.

Election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes, the government seizes corporate assets it deems 'scary enough', tree farms across the nation are overrun by clipboard-wielding biologists, and nobody knows why the caged Militarized Penguin sings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mapleleaves40's national animal is the Militarized Penguin.

Mapleleaves40 is ranked 125,188^th in the world and 3^rd in The Independent Solar Colonies for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,157.44 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
