The Grand Duchy of Maginka is a huge, genial nation, notable for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 356 million Maginkians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jorua. The average income tax rate is 68.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Maginkan economy, worth 30.9 trillion Mana Monies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 86,863 Mana Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Extraordinary tribunals try accused financial criminals, all footpaths have tollbooths, the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene, and the nation's reputation for treachery has left it sidelined on the international stage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maginka's national animal is the Two-horned violet llama, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Maginka is ranked 235,696^th in the world and 185^th in Astoria for Largest Populations, with 356 million capita.
