The Republic of The Maushold is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its restrictive gun laws. The cynical population of 2.401 billion Mausholdians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 19.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Mausholdian economy, worth 115 trillion rubledollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 48,031 rubledollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Maushold's national animal is the hawk.

The Maushold is ranked 172,574^th in the world and 3,948^th in Suspicious for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 385.69 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
