The D'deridex-Class WarBird of LegMiner58 is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Tellem with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.894 billion Romulas 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cethuma. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 73.8%.

The frighteningly efficient LegMiner58ian economy, worth 520 trillion Tal Shiars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 179,960 Tal Shiars, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

The nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, every week is blindness awareness week, and concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. LegMiner58's national animal is the Cloaking Device, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Mnhei'sahe and Lyrrveoth.

LegMiner58 is ranked 290,516th in the world and 5,579th in the South Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 32 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
