The Fairy Tail Mage of Ice Make is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Gray with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.945 billion Ice Makeans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magnolia Town. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 88.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Ice Makean economy, worth a remarkable 2,518 trillion jewels a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 253,242 jewels, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 783,140 per year while the poor average 63,135, a ratio of 12.4 to 1.

The internal market is thriving, there's never enough space in space, an IT mega-corporation has a patent pending on the rectangle, and career advisors ask sociopathic orphan girls if they have considered becoming professional assassins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ice Make's national animal is the cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.

Ice Make is ranked 54,130th in the world and 873rd in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 4,395.52 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
