The Republic of Medicion I-E is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its ritual sacrifices, zero percent divorce rate, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.026 billion Medicion I-Eians 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, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 38.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Medicion I-Eian economy, worth 292 trillion pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,595 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Prominent cultural symbols are featured on the backs of cereal boxes, fruit market traders let their stock spoil rather than reduce their prices at the day's end, business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, and pretending to be prejudiced is a good way to get out of jury duty. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Medicion I-E's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Medicion I-E is ranked 55,500^th in the world and 4^th in Imus for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 5,259.6 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
