The Theocracy of Holy Dominion of Mercatoria is a large, safe nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 62 million Mercatorians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.1%.

The very strong Mercatorian economy, worth 4.38 trillion Divinas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 70,663 Divinas, with the richest citizens earning 9.2 times as much as the poorest.

Criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, people are arrested for looking too sternly at whales, Mercatorian watches list strained wrists as a common side effect, and orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy Dominion of Mercatoria's national animal is the Golden Eagle.

Holy Dominion of Mercatoria is ranked 145,960^th in the world and 1,028^th in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 520.38 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
