The Republic of Menouria is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Julia Richardson with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate population of 18.996 billion Menourians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Warwick. The average income tax rate is 67.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Menourian economy, worth a remarkable 1,944 trillion rittiles a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,378 rittiles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government endows universities based on clearly demonstrated greed, senior professors are allowed to skip the wait at soup kitchens, a fashion designer has been arrested for inciting hatred after claiming redheads couldn't pull off vermillion, and riot police are stationed around paintings of violent protestors. Crime is totally unknown. Menouria's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Menouria is ranked 4,185^th in the world and 179^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 131.5 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
