The Republic of Mingladesh is a large, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and suspicion of poets. The cynical, devout population of 192 million Mingladeshians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The medium-sized, liberal, well-organized government prioritizes Spirituality, with Defense, Education, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Industry receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 22.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Mingladeshian economy, worth 7.95 trillion Glado dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,428 Glado dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Third world countries are rich in "I Love Mingladesh City" t-shirts, restaurants have noticed that hanging wet laundry from the ceiling makes diners order more food, EULAs remind customers that "Private Mode" is a browser setting rather than a promise, and criminals always seem to be forewarned of police raids. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Mingladesh's national animal is the Lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Mingladesh is ranked 192,817^th in the world and 10,587^th in Lazarus for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 22.46 Effective Tax Rate.
