The Empire of Metailuria is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Glorious Leader with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 1.836 billion Metailurians 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, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Life is Cheap City. The average income tax rate is 18.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Metailurian economy, worth 263 trillion Potatoes a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 143,721 Potatoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned, glamping Metailurians won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi, Metailurian scientists are mixing chewing tobacco with bacon flavouring in an attempt to craft the perfect male snack, and the government seizes private property for the 'good of the people'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Metailuria's national animal is the Lynx, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Kekism.

Metailuria is ranked 49,281^st in the world and 870^th in the West Pacific for Highest Wealthy Incomes, with 215,261 Standard Monetary Units.
