The Republic of Mozolephies is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Taboahai Mikan with a fair hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, lack of airports, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 9.374 billion Mozolephites enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Z'umajian. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 50.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Mozolephiesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,221 trillion t'ebas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 130,294 t'ebas, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,171,549 per year while the poor average 1,815, a ratio of 645 to 1.
Patriots insist that size does matter, glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, celebrity foodies are biting a huge chunk out of the government budget, and policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mozolephies's national animal is the shrimp, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is A'emauç and Kila.
Mozolephies is ranked 265,267th in the world and 231st in Forest for Most Primitive, scoring -212.3 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
