The Kingdom of Marexi is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by King Maren Thurnt III with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, humorless population of 5.285 billion Marexians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Artentin. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Marexian economy, worth 870 trillion Marecs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 164,677 Marecs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's black ops are starting to get on people's nerves, the nation's economic policies have a narrow area of effect, the government subsidizes those who produce the worst results, and criminals and college students are taking an interest in the government's new weed-killing program. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Marexi's national animal is the Griffon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Marentheism.

Marexi is ranked 20,858^th in the world and 346^th in The East Pacific for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 6,399.22 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
