The Royal Federation of Matheo is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Ian Melnish with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 14.219 billion Matheoans enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government is dominated by the Department of Industry, with Education, Administration, and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Defense and Law & Order aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Matheoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,923 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 135,289 Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 724,071 per year while the poor average 13,237, a ratio of 54.7 to 1.

Looting and pillaging are now considered vital intelligence-gathering activities, embarrassed police officers wear spandex and carry net guns, doctors spend more time writing sick notes than caring for the sick, and evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Matheo's national animal is the The bee, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Matheo is ranked 23,514th in the world and 16th in matheo for Most Stationary, with 1,486.53829861488 days.
