The Tsardom of Maikova is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Aleksandar Ramakov III with a fair hand, and notable for its frequent executions, infamous sell-swords, and parental licensing program. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.242 billion Maikovans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Koryev. The average income tax rate is 75.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Maikovan economy, worth 91.1 trillion Chervons a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 73,316 Chervons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's poor can be seen scavenging trash bins for used coffee grounds, doctors are learning that red tape makes ineffective bandages, death row inmates cower in fear at the phrase "one-year anniversary", and a major religion has been named as Maikova's national religion. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maikova's national animal is the Maikovan Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Maikova is ranked 16,030^th in the world and 29^th in Aesica for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 3,871.43 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
