The Most Serene Republic of Emmelinicks is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, feral children, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 8.204 billion Emmelinicksians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, with Industry, Healthcare, and Public Transport also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 91.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Emmelinicksian economy, worth a remarkable 1,427 trillion golddusts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Retail, Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 174,028 golddusts, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

Maxtopians are both starving and giddy after the Emmelinicksian military unleashed its biological weapons, aggressive promotion of global warming puts polar bears on thin ice, reddish-brown is the new black, and Emmelinicksian politicians spend a lot of time praising East Lebatuckese policies these days. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Emmelinicks's national animal is the nightbird, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Emmelinicks is ranked 321,672nd in the world and 3,390th in the West Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -14.03 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
