The Royal Protectorate of Mleocun is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Oberkolonialzhenfufurher Preventus I with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 16.218 billion Mleocunese have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zhentiangard. The average income tax rate is 69.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mleocunese economy, worth a remarkable 2,389 trillion Bits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 147,331 Bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Economists claim no news is good news, "Oberkolonialzhenfufurher Preventus I got your tongue?" has become a popular idiom, the leading national news source is 'my cousin Billy-Bob on MyFace', and the government has declared that sharing is uncaring. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mleocun's national animal is the Macorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Protestant Harmoniusm.

Mleocun is ranked 18,286^th in the world and 62^nd in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Lowest Crime Rates, with 93.66 law-abiding acts per hour.
