The Empire of Mesogeia is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Empress Elena II with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and national health service. The hard-working, devout population of 14.048 billion Mesogeians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandropolis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Mesogeian economy, worth a remarkable 1,321 trillion Mesogeian Drachmas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Retail. Average income is 94,064 Mesogeian Drachmas, with the richest citizens earning 8.7 times as much as the poorest.

Major boxing matches are held in government buildings, the government tries not to listen to the people unless it absolutely has to, citizens are expected to be proficient in at least five languages, and some of the country's most famous photographers are animals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Mesogeia's national animal is the Mesogei Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Mesogeian Apostolic Church.

Mesogeia is ranked 141,003^rd in the world and 9^th in Ajax for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,736.63 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
