The New Remixed Empire of Matamorosia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by King Pocoyo VII with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 5.493 billion Matamorosiani 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Matamoros. The average income tax rate is 58.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Matamorosianic economy, worth a remarkable 1,016 trillion Matamorosian Pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 185,138 Matamorosian Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, police are arresting costumed characters at comic book conventions, weekends are spent tilting at windmills, and several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation. Crime is totally unknown. Matamorosia's national animal is the Polandball, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Matamotosian Catholic and Islam.

Matamorosia is ranked 29,394th in the world and 311th in Europe for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 5,747.78 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
