The Queendom of Master is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Master with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 9.116 billion Masterians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New London. The average income tax rate is 89.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Masterian economy, worth a remarkable 1,826 trillion yen a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 200,382 yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Undergrads find their professors' mushroom experiments less psychedelic than expected, it's customary to greet the monarch with fist bumps, airplanes have giant grilles on their noses to knock drones out of their path, and more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people. Crime is totally unknown. Master's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Master is ranked 1,588^th in the world and 1^st in Frostpunk for Least Corrupt Governments, with 96.78 percentage of bribes refused.
