The Imperial City of Mediternia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Felix Alexander with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, pith helmet sales, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.588 billion Mediternians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Noikish. The average income tax rate is 37.9%.

The all-consuming Mediternian economy, worth 322 trillion lamins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 89,840 lamins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Disputed territories across Concord are being claimed by Mediternian college students, artists are renowned for their ability to make art pieces out of thin air, traffic news is delivered to drivers via carrier pigeon, and the nation's generous tax credits have brought all the film studios to the yard. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mediternia's national animal is the emu, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Empirism.

Mediternia is ranked 68,791^st in the world and 122^nd in Concord for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 2,765.12 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
