The Empire of Mommano Dicus is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 833 million Mommano Dicusians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trantor. The average income tax rate is 64.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Mommano Dicusian economy, worth 90.4 trillion lire a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,578 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Libraries are refusing to stock A Midsummer Night's Dream because it has an ass in it, 4-year-olds studying for their mathematics exams are anxious that they will be unemployable in adulthood if they fail, the government has little issue with allowing its citizens to languish in foreign jails, and environmental protestors are being rounded up and taken away in sinister black vans as a massive land development campaign gets underway. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mommano Dicus's national animal is the swan, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Mommano Dicus is ranked 145,904^th in the world and 734^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Politically Free, scoring 41.14 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
