The Mesmerized Masses of Messmeria is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Psychic Studies Council with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, digital currency, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 4.192 billion Urceans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Joeton. The average income tax rate is 77.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Urcean economy, worth 442 trillion Urcean Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 105,669 Urcean Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security, many parents are becoming frustrated with their children's choices in spouses, teachers are dying as they attempt to read 500 word essays without pausing for breath, and teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Messmeria's national animal is the Yellow Labrador, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Messmeria is ranked 250,611^th in the world and 5^th in Brainrot for Fattest Citizens, with 7.39 Obesity Rate.
