The Federal Republic of Medarc is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its burgeoning Lion population. The hard-working, democratic population of 579 million Medarcis 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, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The thriving Medarci economy, worth 34.7 trillion Medarci Lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 59,942 Medarci Lire, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 212,177 per year while the poor average 12,227, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Medarc's national animal is the Lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Medarc is ranked 178,621^st in the world and 90^th in Geopolity for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 52.92 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
