The Republic of Mayflower 5 is a very large, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning lion population. The hard-working population of 412 million Mayflower 5ians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 13.0%.

The Mayflower 5ian economy, worth 20.8 trillion stences a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Tourism, and Soda Sales. Average income is 50,427 stences, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mayflower 5's national animal is the lion.

Mayflower 5 is ranked 159,559^th in the world and 34^th in Distorted Memories for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.2 percentage of bribes refused.
