The Federation of Marcelli is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by The Grand Chancellor with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 9.02 billion Marcellians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Transientia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 65.4%.

The very strong Marcellian economy, worth 692 trillion Banknotes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 76,691 Banknotes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 229,946 per year while the poor average 19,983, a ratio of 11.5 to 1.

Sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, ants are charged with crimes against humanity, the sanitised and dull music festivals of Marcelli are famed for their reasonable volume levels, and arbitrary election rules are considered sacrosanct. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Marcelli's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Everyanteism.

Marcelli is ranked 93,319^th in the world and 1^st in Tolland for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.5 percentage of bribes refused.
