“For the Great Mongolian People”

The Empire of Mengjiang is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Genghis Khan of Mengjiang with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.623 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Commerce. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Uranium Mining and Information Technology.

Organ donation is compulsory, female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast, punitive tariffs protect local industry, and the government is a law unto itself. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mengjiang's national animal is the Great White Horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Tibetan Buddhism, and its currency is the Mengjiang Dollar.

Mengjiang is ranked 3rd in the region and 53,224th in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
