The Scots Kingdom of Macbeth is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Macbeth King of Alba with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, lack of airports, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 32.051 billion Scots are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dunsinane. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Macbethian economy, worth a remarkable 5,089 trillion Punds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 158,793 Punds, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,383,240 per year while the poor average 2,844, a ratio of 486 to 1.

Childhood friends of Macbeth King of Alba are living it large abroad at the taxpayers' expense, caroling is considered a public disturbance, the government says that Possession is nine-tenths of the Lore, and the diplomatic corps stinks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Macbeth's national animal is the Unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Macbeth is ranked 194,526th in the world and 1st in House of Lancaster of Wessex for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring 44.78 on the Hayek Index.
