The United Socialist States of Masiona is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by 5r32c with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 5.166 billion Masionans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vellion. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Masionan economy, worth 811 trillion danks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 157,005 danks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High school career advisors advise belligerent loners to consider vigilantism, the minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed, fistfighting vigilantes tend to suffer a lot of gunshot wounds, and finders keepers is the law of the land. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Masiona's national animal is the white whale, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Masiona is ranked 292,927^th in the world and 214^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Fattest Citizens, with 5.43 Obesity Rate.
