The Empire of Makko Oko is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Emperor Conall Solis with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.75 billion Makkonians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense, Administration, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Public Transport aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Opposh. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Makkonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,214 trillion slottoes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 156,652 slottoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Legitimate job descriptions now include "smiling and waving", imitation is the sincerest form of felony, stony-faced prosecutors play loud gangster rap music during court proceedings, and holiday light displays just aren't the same without seizure-inducing strobe effects. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Makko Oko's national animal is the Phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Makko Oko is ranked 176,999th in the world and 202nd in Conch Kingdom for Most Stationary, with 85.189355201 days.
