The Stellar Republic of North Mack is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Council of Seven with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 22.9 billion Mackens enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Law & Order, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Trinakai. The average income tax rate is 57.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving North Mackian economy, worth a remarkable 2,914 trillion Creds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 127,254 Creds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High school bands practice by moonlight, the government is hungry to spread communism beyond the nation's borders, there's never enough space in space, and it's been a banner year for local vexillology. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Mack's national animal is the Red-tailed Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

North Mack is ranked 145,255^th in the world and 91^st in The Local Cluster for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -6 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
