The Orennican State of Masccalire is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 8.205 billion Masccalireans 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, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 69.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Masccalirean economy, worth 52.0 trillion Tribops a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 6,333 Tribops, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Masccalire's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Masccalire is ranked 71,188^th in the world and 7^th in The Slide Countries for Lowest Crime Rates, with 69.9 law-abiding acts per hour.
