The Free Socialist People of The Commune of Meddle is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by The Comrade with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, public floggings, and strictly enforced bedtime. The compassionate population of 15.26 billion Meddlean Community Members are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hazopia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The strong Meddlean Commune economy, worth a remarkable 2,070 trillion Wolds a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an impressive 135,658 Wolds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Future forecasters fearfully discuss grey goo and human obsolescence, landless farmers wander forlornly in the government's many national parks, citizens praise the weeds that overwhelm their narrow vegetable realm, and sly spies try to rely on national allies so that they don't die. Crime is totally unknown. The Commune of Meddle's national animal is the Red Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

The Commune of Meddle is ranked 12,173^rd in the world and 18^th in The Internationale for Most Armed, with 7.82 Weapons Per Person.
