The Commonwealth of Masters86 is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, public floggings, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 22.377 billion Masters86ians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Masters86ian economy, worth a remarkable 5,156 trillion Coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 230,433 Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles, the government has pinkie-promised never to use its veto power except in an emergency, crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, and Leader can often be seen hanging around playgrounds chatting with the kids. Crime is totally unknown. Masters86's national animal is the Koala, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Masters86 is ranked 125,884^th in the world and 1,082^nd in the Rejected Realms for Most Corrupt Governments, with 7.53 kickbacks per hour.
