The Moral Commonwealth of Masapia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Masapian National Assembly with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 6.018 billion Masapians 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, corrupt, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Masapia. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Masapian economy, worth a remarkable 1,066 trillion Gold Standards 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 177,192 Gold Standards, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Masapian National Assembly's handshakes with opposition leaders usually lead to thumb wars, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, and the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Masapia's national animal is the Great bustard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Equality Mandate.

Masapia is ranked 5,676th in the world and 1st in The Wandsmen for Lowest Crime Rates, with 112.95 law-abiding acts per hour.
