The Federal Republic of MSFT is a mammoth, efficient nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, zero percent divorce rate, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 7.017 billion MSFTians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.9%.

The very strong MSFTian economy, worth 350 trillion MSFT Shareses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Gambling, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 49,976 MSFT Shareses, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 156,025 per year while the poor average 12,289, a ratio of 12.7 to 1.

The nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks, children who display even minimal sporting aptitude are immediately assigned a personal trainer, murder is sanctioned if the legal paperwork is filled out correctly, and police escort anti-abortion activists to free speech cages if they try to express their views. Crime is moderate. MSFT's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

MSFT is ranked 133,746^th in the world and 13^th in NYSE for Highest Food Quality, scoring 19.32 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
