The Republic of Max Madness is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The cynical population of 529 million Max Madnessians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 22.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Max Madnessian economy, worth 21.0 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,660 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Max Madness's national animal is the eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Max Madness is ranked 167,792^nd in the world and 1^st in Mad Max for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 1,058.02 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
