The Republic of Medoynia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Élisabeth Nybourg with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 5.57 billion Medoynians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roissy. The average income tax rate is 94.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Medoynian economy, worth 978 trillion devises a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 175,589 devises, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens wishing to leave the country must surrender half their wealth to the government, space shuttles are lying silent on the runway till the Space Agency can work out how to fit a creche and a meditation room into their next spacecraft, the 'Museum Of Stuff We Stole' is a tourist favourite, and footballers are doing aerobics in the sauna to build their hot weather endurance. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Medoynia's national animal is the animal, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Medoynia is ranked 147,654^th in the world and 19^th in United Forum of Nations for Largest Retail Industry, scoring 125.04 on the Shrinkwrap Consignment Productivity Index.
