The D'deridex-Class WarBird of LegMiner41 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ucil with an even hand, and remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, parental licensing program, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, humorless, devout population of 4.237 billion Romulans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jomaik. The average income tax rate is 68.9%.

The frighteningly efficient LegMiner41ian economy, worth 821 trillion Tal Shiars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 193,953 Tal Shiars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The only Maxxmas gift frontline troops receive from officers is a bullet with the enemy's name on it, the big red machine has ground to a halt, warning signs caution Romulans where they may fall off 'the edge of the world', and the government tries not to listen to the people unless it absolutely has to. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. LegMiner41's national animal is the Cloaking Device, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Mnhei'sahe and Lyrrveoth.

LegMiner41 is ranked 10,093rd in the world and 1st in Groovy for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 7,122.26 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
