The Capitalist Democracy of Mettzacanoa is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Manish with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, frequent executions, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 22.816 billion Mettzacanoans 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 tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mr Happy's Funland. The average income tax rate is 1.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mettzacanoan economy, worth an astonishing 10,109 trillion Mettz Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 443,107 Mettz Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Teenagers haven't been seen outdoors since the nation reconnected to the Internet, open-casket funerals are avoided at all cost, political detractors refer to Manish as 'that Bigtopian puppet', and political spontaneity takes a lot of planning. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Mettzacanoa's national animal is the Sphinx, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is a religion with no followers.

Mettzacanoa is ranked 14,297th in the world and 223rd in the Rejected Realms for Most Stationary, with 1,823.1216109792 days.
