The Federation of Marthuania is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Marius Kravtsjenko Oktyabrskiy with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cheerful population of 26.851 billion Marthuanians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pravda. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Marthuanian economy, worth an astonishing 12,906 trillion Crowns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 480,662 Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

A degree of self-hatred is vital for a future in politics, the nation's leader is normally just referred to as "snuggle-wuggle-huggy-bear", mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, and dining out often involves bears on the plate no matter what you order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Marthuania's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Marthuania is ranked 212^th in the world and 3^rd in Forest for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 1,569.8 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
