The Empire of Meglomania is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Emperor Simon The Magnificent with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, avowedly heterosexual populace, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.91 billion Meglomanians 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meglomania City. The average income tax rate is 71.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Meglomanian economy, worth 129 trillion Vouchers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 67,749 Vouchers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A small country is wondering where their capitol building's gold dome went, funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals, would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here", and people who tease dwarfs are being cut down to size. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Meglomania's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Judaism.

Meglomania is ranked 43,830^th in the world and 964^th in the South Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 58,058.86 Standard Monetary Units.
