Macanoco, officially the Principality of Macanoco (Lysian : Principauté de Macanoco), is a sovereign city-state located in mid Europa. Macanoco has an area of 1025 km2 and a population of about 1,100,000 . The country encompasses three duchies, six baronies and, through land reclamation, Hifax's landmass has expanded by twenty percent, this land is owned by the Government and private developers. Macanoco is known to be a playground for the rich and famous primarily due to its low tax laws, sprawling mansions and hot Mediterranean weather. In 2014, it was noted that about 41 percent of people living in the principality had a net worth over €1m, a number that has significantly grown over the years. Property prices and the number of millionaires are considered among the highest on Eurth.
The economy of the Principality of Macanoco is considered one of the most successful in the region, since the 19th century the economy is now opening to the tourism sector thanks to its climate, scenery, notably the Kilpec Coast and the construction of Macanoco International Airport as well as the Amalfi Casino District, since then, Macanoco has been a major tourist destination and ‘playground’ for the rich and famous of Eurth. For over two hundred years the banking sector has been a prominent and very important sector of the economy, many private banks had used the abundance of billionaires, low business taxes and tax haven status to set up business in the principality. The city of Macanoco has also grew as a glamorous spot thanks to many of the activities enjoyed by its populace and the sports played, the Macanoco Polo Association, the Macanoco Tennis Open, the Macanoco Golf Open and the world famous Macanoco Grand Prix are just some displays of the world famous sports scene.
Macanoco has been critisised for its immigration policies. The state has around 460,000 citizens, and over 800,000 nationals, to acquire citizenship, you must either have both parents be citizens (this doesn’t count if your parents became citizens following one’s 17th birthday), or go through the ministry for immigration’s department for citizenship, currently citizenship has an initial cost of €500,000 per person over the age of 30 (Ages 17-29 have a cost of €250,000-€350,000 depending on the MOI’s evaluation) then for the next 5 years one must spend or invest €400,000 within the principality, which isn’t very hard as property prices are some of the highest in the world. Once the initial payment is paid one receives a passport similar to a national, they receive a citizen’s passport within 2 months. Hundreds, sometimes thousands, emigrate as a citizen to the principality each year, providing millions, if not billions of euros each year, a majority of which is spent on infrastructure, services and education. The government has been criticised by the international community for allowing some of its citizens to commit certain crimes, whilst sentencing nationals, but that practice is now coming to an end. The scheme of citizens and nationals has been called segregation by critics, although both groups receive the same services and with further funding, nationals’ schools and infrastructure have been seen to be the same if not better than some parts of predominantly citizen inhabited areas. Although this is primarily due to cultural heritage laws which don’t allow destruction of old infrastructure.
Etymology
Macanoco comes from the Mendesian words Maca, meaning town or village, and Noco, which is five. The word refers to when there Macanoco was a collection of 5 towns and villages which united to form Astoria and Hapsburgen, the word was used prior to this by ancient scholars on maps, the word Macanoco has been noticed in many early maps, made prior to the principality’s founding.
