The Lions Den of Morgateroyde is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Snagglepuss with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, infamous sell-swords, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 10.727 billion Morgateroydeans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cavern. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Morgateroydean economy, worth 794 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 74,090 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Bouncers at the door of the sweet shop warn five-year-olds not to cause trouble, viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows, the government has awarded itself a month-long holiday to celebrate its achievements, and the cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose. Crime is totally unknown. Morgateroyde's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is zoolatry.

Morgateroyde is ranked 161,797th in the world and 6th in The Green Belt for Most Stationary, with 121.1240197028 days.
