The State of McFaddon is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 15.541 billion McFaddonians 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 dominated by the Department of Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The strong McFaddonian economy, worth 918 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 59,117 betales, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 343,311 per year while the poor average 4,823, a ratio of 71.2 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, and McFaddon has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. McFaddon's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

McFaddon is ranked 286,993^rd in the world and 6^th in Glasgow for Lowest Crime Rates, with 36.72 law-abiding acts per hour.
