The Supine Socialist Slothland of Maowi is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Maowese populace with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 10.889 billion Maowese hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bradypus City. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Maowese economy, worth a remarkable 1,493 trillion toenails a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 137,172 toenails, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A sledgehammer and a spray can are seen as the default tools of political debate, every spring railroad foundations erode to reveal human remains, political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions, and court verdicts are predictable to within a hundredth of a percentage point. Crime is totally unknown. Maowi's national animal is the sloth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Maowi is ranked 4,989th in the world and 45th in Europeia for Safest, scoring 131.26 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
