The District of Mackenzie Base is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by privy council chairman with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 30.459 billion northmen enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, although Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.0%.

The very strong Mackenzie Basean economy, worth 928 trillion Juno aurums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Soda Sales. Average income is 30,491 Juno aurums, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

All tariffs have been abolished, Mackenzie Base has designated District City as its capital city, Privy council chairman has just been declared ruler of Mackenzie Base in an international press conference, and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime is moderate. Mackenzie Base's national animal is the quick pink fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mackenzie Base is ranked 214,136^th in the world and 1^st in Mackenzie for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 30.41 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
