The Aegean Okra of Munchlax is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, strictly enforced bedtime, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The quiet, industrious population of 40.192 billion Munchlaxians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Policy, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 27.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Munchlaxian economy, worth 624 trillion rupees a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Soda Sales, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 15,532 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, the wreckages of bombed planes that litter Munchlax are highly popular tourist destinations, and anti-government web sites are springing up. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Munchlax's national animal is the heron, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Munchlax is ranked 248,305^th in the world and 5^th in Afghanistan for Lowest Crime Rates, with 52.47 law-abiding acts per hour.
