“Merry Meg”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Queen of Megette is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic population of 4.413 billion Megetteans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 18.5%.

The strong Megettean economy, worth 244 trillion Golds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is 55,343 Golds, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

Preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime, every spring railroad foundations erode to reveal human remains, those who cut young children are told to cut it out, and Megette has designated Megette City as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Megette's national animal is the Trout.

Megette is ranked 194,100^th in the world and 2^nd in Riverrun for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,157.75 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
