The Republic of Marvinville is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its hatred of cheese, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 8.821 billion Marvinvilleans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it prioritizes Healthcare, although Education, Environment, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 79.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Marvinvillean economy, worth 321 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Soda Sales industry. Average income is 36,442 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, the nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them, and good-looking soldier boys have celebrity status amongst the nation's homosexuals. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Marvinville's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Marvinville is ranked 284,408th in the world and 203rd in Thaecia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -14.01 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
