The Holy Corporate Municipality of McDonaldsland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ronald McDonald with an iron fist, and renowned for its closed borders, pith helmet sales, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.282 billion McCitizens are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of McDonaldsland City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.2%.

The frighteningly efficient McDonaldslandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,938 trillion McPennies a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 194,185 McPennies, with the richest citizens earning 9.0 times as much as the poorest.

Twins move across the country to avoid being accused of the other's crimes, teach an angler how to phish and he can make a living, stale 'yo mamma' insults have been replaced by 'your maternal DNA' insults, and the holiest shrine in Capitalism is on another world. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. McDonaldsland's national animal is the McNugget, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Capitalism.

McDonaldsland is ranked 33,542^nd in the world and 1,209^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 203.4 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
