The Brazilian Catholic Empire of Neo-Macedonia is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by the Emperor with an iron fist, and notable for its national health service. Its compassionate, cynical population of 16.172 billion are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Religion & Spirituality, although Law & Order and Defence are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rio de Janairo. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry.

All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering', motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours, and politicians are losing their jobs in a plan to make the government 'leaner and fitter'. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neo-Macedonia's national animal is the Fish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Genesisian Roman Catholicism, and its currency is the Latinum.

Neo-Macedonia is ranked 3rd in The Modern World and 29,763rd in the world for Most Extreme, scoring 24 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
