The Federation of Hypermeridionalis is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, free-roaming dinosaurs, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.569 billion Hypermeridionalisians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Hypermeridionalisian economy, worth a remarkable 4,874 trillion Gods a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 421,369 Gods, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,315,222 per year while the poor average 103,653, a ratio of 12.7 to 1.

When shaking hands with foreign leaders Leader wears an armoured gauntlet, the New Hypermeridionalisian Thesaurus lists "love" and "oppress" as synonyms, doctors can't help but regard Leader Vcte Mgve MF FHLM GCHE with envy, and it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Hypermeridionalis's national animal is the Demon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Hypermeridionalis is ranked 5,197th in the world and 81st in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 115.63 law-abiding acts per hour.
