The Jingoistic States of Magicia is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its compulsory vegetarianism, enslaved workforce, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, devout population of 955 million Magicians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government prioritizes Spirituality, with Administration, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.3%.

The powerhouse Magical economy, worth 65.5 trillion deniers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,575 deniers, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

People who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned, M-SPAN features senators wrestling with ever-increasing production elements, death row is annually emptied to feed the nation's hunger for televised murder-games, and cold medicines curiously become cheaper when government officials sneeze. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Magicia's national animal is the beaver, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Magicia is ranked 538th in the world and 1st in The New Republic of the Philippines for Most Primitive, scoring 331.96 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
