The Republic of Marek2 is a large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 124 million Marek2ians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government prioritizes Administration, with Education, Welfare, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 51.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Marek2ian economy, worth 7.79 trillion Mareks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 62,819 Mareks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Leader's webseries about the alleged hauntings of Marek2 City generates millions of views, school children asked "what is two times two?" are likely to form a symposium to discuss how different answers make them feel, lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed, and the official Marek2ian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Marek2's national animal is the baboon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Marek2 is ranked 4,154^th in the world and 107^th in The East Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 95.32 percentage of bribes refused.
