The Empire of Mar-nu-Falmar is a gargantuan, genial nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and fear of technology. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 44.911 billion Mar-nu-Falmarians 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 enormous government prioritizes Environment, with Welfare and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Defense and International Aid aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 74.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Mar-nu-Falmarian economy, worth a remarkable 2,920 trillion Taris a year, is extremely specialized and solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 65,024 Taris, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, parents are held criminally responsible for their children's crimes, houses and businesses are bulldozed to make way for ever-expanding cemetaries, and same-sex marriages are increasingly common. Crime is totally unknown. Mar-nu-Falmar's national animal is the Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mar-nu-Falmar is ranked 3,463^rd in the world and 1^st in Dor Lomin for Nicest Citizens, with 56.86 average smiles per day.
