The Empire of Mastruver is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Mastruvulus with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, devout population of 8.772 billion Mastruverians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Defense is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lyras Cortarius. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mastruverian economy, worth 894 trillion Mastruverian denarii 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 Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 101,984 Mastruverian denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, the eagle is a protected species, couples are discouraged from marrying until they can rank their partner on a scale of one to ten, and the deceased are buried mostly to hide them from state-sanctioned corpse-collectors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mastruver's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Mastruver is ranked 315,386^th in the world and 543^rd in Starlight for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -10.77 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
