“You do not know pain. You do not know fear”

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

The Dominion of Methedrastan is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 15.625 billion Methedrastanians 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 medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 25.9%.

The strong Methedrastanian economy, worth 813 trillion silmarils a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is 52,060 silmarils, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, military spending recently hit a new high, and the death penalty has been reintroduced. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Methedrastan's national animal is the ent, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Methedrastan is ranked 110,174^th in the world and 5^th in Regionistan for Most Corrupt Governments, with 9.86 kickbacks per hour.
