The Democratic Republic of Mapico is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Leafy with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, complete lack of prisons, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate population of 5.874 billion Mapicoans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rain. The average income tax rate is 91.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mapicoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,055 trillion Maps a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 179,670 Maps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The people's love for Leafy is little more than self-preservation, the inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only, group photos of the members of parliament are often mistaken for family reunions, and EpiPen sales have skyrocketed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mapico's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mapico is ranked 266,296^th in the world and 12,496^th in the South Pacific for Highest Crime Rates, with 1.53 crimes per hour.
