The Kingdom of Morketid is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Isak Stjernesønn with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.415 billion Morketidians 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 juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Palasset i Nadir. The average income tax rate is 55.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Morketidian economy, worth 165 trillion lunas a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,263 lunas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Stuttering trypanophobes are doomed never to marry, police pull people off the street for even mentioning the word plane, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, and there is an abondance of ackawi and zartschmelzend in every Morketidian grocery store. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Morketid's national animal is the narhwal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Morketid is ranked 57,473^rd in the world and 121^st in Starlight for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 52,534 Standard Monetary Units.
