Location: The Moonlit Islands

Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Great Moonlit Republic of Mendanau is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its national health service. Its compassionate population of 18.798 billion enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 83%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.

The White Cougar is a protected species, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, government-run brothels can be found on every street corner, and retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mendanau's national animal is the White Cougar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Moonlit Dollar.

Mendanau is ranked 1st in The Moonlit Islands and 1,459th in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 75 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
