The Kaiserreich of Uniand Mel Islands is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Kaiser Grozsi Leopard Lohenköchen with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, cynical population of 3.294 billion Islandians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blauhausen Großstadt. The average income tax rate is 70.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Islanders economy, worth 348 trillion Marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 105,946 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreigners must sell an arm and a leg to afford surgery in Uniand Mel Islands, pregnant hitchhikers with signs requesting rides to "competent care" are a common sight on Islanders roads, airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, and environmental legislation occurs cyclically. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Uniand Mel Islands's national animal is the Lübener Adler, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Uniand Protestant Faith.

Uniand Mel Islands is ranked 270,440th in the world and 10,001st in Osiris for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -9.86 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
