The Commonwealth of Macadyake is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Speaker of the House Leo Bizhiw with a fair hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 1.359 billion Macadyakeans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Whitehorse. The average income tax rate is 85.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Macadyakean economy, worth 149 trillion Macadyakean Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 109,997 Macadyakean Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Geosynchronous satellites are now manned by unpaid interns, space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, economic planning is exalted as a human art form, and the fishing lobby has stemmed the tide of environmental regulations. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Macadyake's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Pantheism.

Macadyake is ranked 175,140^th in the world and 92^nd in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 85.37 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
