The Free Land of Meulinex is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 163 million Meulinexians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, although Education, Administration, and Defense are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The powerhouse Meulinexian economy, worth 13.3 trillion felinas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 81,550 felinas, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 519,593 per year while the poor average 5,274, a ratio of 98.5 to 1.

Protestors are soaking piles of felinas in blood to make a point about government incomes, deceased politicians spam the public with thousands of AI-generated voicemails, charity workers dole out hardtack from behind designer sunglasses, and artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Meulinex's national animal is the domestic cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Meulinex is ranked 132,846th in the world and 3rd in Coralinia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 5.34 kickbacks per hour.
