The Fabulously Socialist Empire of Mundiferrum is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Thouris I of Idlewild with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 14.127 billion Mundiferrorum are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gladialbus. The average income tax rate is 99.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Mundiferri economy, worth a remarkable 2,686 trillion P-Funds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 190,148 P-Funds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People can't decide between preserving forests and buying print copies of 'Dogman Versus The Giggler', films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay, pocket calculators are seen as status symbols for the ostentatiously wealthy, and busy commuters no longer hear the cries of "I want some more!" on the nation's streets. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mundiferrum's national animal is the Cat in a Pumpkin Costume, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Isolandian Orthodoxy.
