The State of McCaig is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 25.581 billion McCaigians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Education, with Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Public Transport receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The very strong McCaigian economy, worth a remarkable 1,037 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 40,546 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 275,668 per year while the poor average 2,178, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, and McCaig has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. McCaig's national animal is the deer.

McCaig is ranked 227,550^th in the world and 8^th in NDjamena for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -6.32 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
