OverviewFactbookDispatchesPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Twenty Five Free lands of Meropis is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Leader with a fair hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, infamous sell-swords, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 25.614 billion Meropisians 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, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Education and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Big Place. The average income tax rate is 1.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Meropisian economy, worth an astonishing 13,915 trillion Pompas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 543,271 Pompas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Air purifiers fight smoke machines on Meropisian stage setups, the nation has an international reputation for compassion, attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams, and God took rock and roll from you, took rock and roll from everyone. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Meropis's national animal is the Bombus Terrestris, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Truth.

Meropis is ranked 39th in the world and 30th in Europe for Most Influential, scoring 813,645 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
