The Rogue Nation of Mazuv is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.928 billion Mazuvians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Healthcare, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.

The very strong Mazuvian economy, worth 203 trillion Mini-Cents a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is 69,579 Mini-Cents, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 404,910 per year while the poor average 5,649, a ratio of 71.7 to 1.

Judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend, the military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, corporations claim the third ounce of any metal traded in a wicker-cone on the Sunday of a full moon as a charitable expense, and gigantic new prisons are springing up all over the nation. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Mazuv's national animal is the Dog.

Mazuv is ranked 166,734th in the world and 1st in Simonia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 615.99 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
