The Holy Empire of McDonalds0 is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by GoldShip with an even hand, and notable for its ritual sacrifices, unlimited-speed roads, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed population of 1.767 billion McDonaldsuians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of GoldMC. The average income tax rate is 35.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving McDonalds0ian economy, worth 194 trillion Carats a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,218 Carats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The national security service are a bunch of crooks, children are told they have to do well in school if they want to live, citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, and GoldShip's webseries about the alleged hauntings of GoldMC generates millions of views. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. McDonalds0's national animal is the Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

McDonalds0 is ranked 53,791^st in the world and 2^nd in Orcusa for Highest Average Incomes, with 110,218.33 Standard Monetary Units.
