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

The Empire of Mengjiang is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Genghis Khan of Mengjiang with an iron fist, and renowned for its smutty television, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 32.498 billion Mengjiangians 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Law & Order, with Defense, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mengjiang City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 64.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Mengjiangian economy, worth a remarkable 8,607 trillion Mengjiang Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 264,855 Mengjiang Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,217,787 per year while the poor average 34,918, a ratio of 34.9 to 1.

Children regularly take part in blood sports that result in extreme boo-boos, all guns must be registered, blasphemers and government critics often die in very unusual and unlikely accidents, and parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mengjiang's national animal is the Great White Horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Tibetan Buddhism.

Mengjiang is ranked 24,048^th in the world and 1^st in Asia Pacific Economic Group for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,996.39 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
