The State of McArthur is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, complete lack of public education, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 21.159 billion McArthurians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The minute, moralistic, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of Industry, although Environment is also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Columbia Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.1%.

The thriving McArthurian economy, worth 896 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 42,379 betales, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

The government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, politicians are fired for opening subjective statements with "I believe", citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee, and the people are famous throughout the region for their bleached-white teeth. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. McArthur's national animal is the deer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

McArthur is ranked 98,055th in the world and 508th in Ancient Lands for Most Stationary, with 448.33035890172 days.
