The Fairy Tail Mage of Ice Make is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Gray with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.776 billion Ice Makeans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magnolia Town. The average income tax rate is 89.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ice Makean economy, worth a remarkable 2,429 trillion jewels a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 248,555 jewels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Funerals are often rudely interrupted by juggling clowns shouting for volunteers from the audience, the government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector, people think "siege mentality" is a positive trait, and drunk drivers are sentenced to death. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ice Make's national animal is the cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.

Ice Make is ranked 18,885th in the world and 300th in the South Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,656.0067873772 days.
