The Colony of Magentus is a tiny, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 16 million Magentusians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 68.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The developing Magentusian economy, worth 549 billion New Veronian Shillings 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 mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 34,330 New Veronian Shillings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Battlefield gains are quickly lost when enemies don't respect a time-out, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, the contraband cigarette trade is lighting up across Magentus, and extreme political groups are outlawed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Magentus's national animal is the Grey Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Magentus is ranked 315,863^rd in the world and 979^th in Concord for Largest Populations, with 16.0 million capita.
