The Commonwealth of Maschfuert is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 579 million Maschfuertians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ghaiérien. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Fuertese economy, worth 27.7 trillion Masbles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 47,832 Masbles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military doctrine says not to open fire until you see the "beady little eyes" of Johnny Foreigner, internet moderator is one of the most popular jobs among the nation's more socially awkward citizens, a surprising number of police officers have been arrested for Gray Narwhal sacrifices, and national park visitors are reporting a rash of poison ivy sightings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maschfuert's national animal is the Gray Narwhal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Maschfuert is ranked 92,105^th in the world and 68^th in Africa for Most Authoritarian, with 990.69 milliStalins.
