Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Republic of Morpugoz is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Redael Dnargeht with a fair hand, and notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 1.618 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cza-Czyyt city. The average income tax rate is 51%, and even higher for the wealthy. A robust private sector is led by the Furniture Restoration, Tourism, and Basket Weaving industries.

The government has declared its commitment to multilateralism, national parks have long lines of different gender-specific 'Porta-Pottys', it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and museums stand half-empty as all foreign exhibits are returned to their countries of origin. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Morpugoz's national animal is the Carrija, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Moruun.

Morpugoz is ranked 363rd in The Kingdom of Denmark and 88,503rd in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -21 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
