The Principality of The Mast Ita is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.544 billion Mast Itans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Turtle Town. The average income tax rate is 56.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Mast Itan economy, worth 89.3 trillion rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. Average income is 57,854 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bins outnumber trees in city parks, tourists visiting the nation are harangued for being capitalist pig-dogs, criminals lock themselves in their mums' basements to avoid prison, and octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Mast Ita's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

The Mast Ita is ranked 235,385^th in the world and 3,134^th in the West Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -4.64 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
