The Republic of Maytree 19 is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 373 million Maytree 19ians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The thriving Maytree 19ian economy, worth 24.1 trillion stences a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 64,520 stences, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 228,383 per year while the poor average 13,160, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, Harry Potter books are banned, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Maytree 19's national animal is the lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Maytree 19 is ranked 100,270^th in the world and 37^th in House Boucher for Nicest Citizens, with 14.64 average smiles per day.
