The Frisbee Tossin' Sex Machines of MADFIGS is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Scott Dogg with an even hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies. Its compassionate population of 17.844 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Education, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fresno. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Students cut up leftover MAD FIGS Dollars during Arts and Crafts, the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, citizens are forced to donate blood once every three months, and anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MADFIGS's national animal is the Animal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Wicca, and its currency is the MAD FIGS Dollar.

MADFIGS is ranked 2nd in Scotland and 721st in the world for Most Influential, scoring 164 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
