The Republic of Map Nation is a mid-sized, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning beaver population. The hard-working population of 74 million Map Nationians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 19.0%.

The Map Nationian economy, worth 3.22 trillion florins a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Average income is 43,495 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Map Nation's national animal is the beaver.

Map Nation is ranked 203,011^th in the world and 10^th in Fodlan for Safest, scoring 57.19 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
