“Hail to Poseidon!”

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

The Allegiance of Mer People is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, pith helmet sales, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 16.429 billion Mer hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atlantis. The average income tax rate is 92.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient a Mer economy, worth a remarkable 2,850 trillion Golds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 173,499 Golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Evasive politicians don't fail to strongly commit to not committing to a course of non-inaction, people who have never eaten chicken are told it tastes a bit like crocodile, enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, and radio shows frequently feature people denouncing religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Mer People's national animal is the Scorpio, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mer People is ranked 29,532^nd in the world and 1^st in Crodown for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
