The Federal Democratic Republic of Mapperdonia is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, national health service, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 13.432 billion Mapperdons have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ortelius. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Mapperdonian economy, worth a remarkable 5,104 trillion Mapperdon dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 380,039 Mapperdon dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visitors often mistake the toiletplex at music festivals for the main stage, the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists, the government single-handedly sustains the bunk bed market, and East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy'. Crime is totally unknown. Mapperdonia's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Technoreligion.

Mapperdonia is ranked 303,784^th in the world and 9^th in Equiterra for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.48 kickbacks per hour.
