The Minister of Magic of Minister Cornelius Fudge is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Cornelis Fudge with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.846 billion Minister Cornelius Fudgeans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Law & Order, although Education, Industry, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ministry of Magic. The average income tax rate is 68.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Minister Cornelius Fudgean economy, worth a remarkable 1,267 trillion Galleons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 128,707 Galleons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Large wigs have been banned for having racist implications, foreign visitors who show an interest in Minister Cornelius Fudgean politics are immediately deported, nothing gets the party jumping like Cornelis Fudge specifying how high, and proper policy proposals prerequire professional peer-reviewed papers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Minister Cornelius Fudge's national animal is the Wizard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Wizardry.
