The State of Marian Evans is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 10.636 billion Marian Evansians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The very strong Marian Evansian economy, worth 474 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Trout Farming, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 44,584 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 303,122 per year while the poor average 2,395, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, all tariffs have been abolished, and Marian Evans has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Marian Evans's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Marian Evans is ranked 289,969^th in the world and 8^th in British North America for Lowest Crime Rates, with 31.54 law-abiding acts per hour.
