The Protectorate of Murundi is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working population of 6.75 billion Murundians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.9%.

The strong Murundian economy, worth 403 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 59,771 pounds, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

Genetic researchers have been expelled, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Murundi's national animal is the Stag of Jeltronia, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Murundi is ranked 212,095^th in the world and 4^th in North Frontier for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,135.25 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
