The Great Kingdom of Merulla is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Arthur VII with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 13.129 billion Merulleans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Royal District of Poseidonia. The average income tax rate is 29.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Merullean economy, worth a remarkable 2,697 trillion Tridents a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 205,467 Tridents, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's holy places are littered with doughnut crumbs, blue bloods are welcome in Merulla, the lives of former ski town residents are going downhill, and people transfer their assets to bank accounts in Manamana before getting divorced. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Merulla's national animal is the horse, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Merulla is ranked 10,043rd in the world and 10th in The Global Elite for Most Cultured, scoring 114 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
