The Banana Republic of Mackiland is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Vasuka aka the second most egoist person with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, ban on automobiles, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 11.866 billion Mackilandlebi 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 large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mackital City. The average income tax rate is 81.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Mackilandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,112 trillion Leaves a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 178,015 Leaves, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Agricultural profit margins are on fire, the police have been swamped with requests to stay up past bedtime, the government funds private schools for intellectually gifted children, and exterminator companies deploy nerve gas in turf wars. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mackiland's national animal is the Banana, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Mackianism.

Mackiland is ranked 14,742nd in the world and 677th in Balder for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring 3 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
