The Grumpy Old Grinch of Mediobogdum is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by His Immaculate Munchiness with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 23.553 billion Mediobogdumians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gariannonum. The average income tax rate is 71.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Mediobogdumian economy, worth a remarkable 6,663 trillion Pizza Slices a year, is highly specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Pizza Delivery, Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 282,898 Pizza Slices, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, political speeches always take place at sunset to a background of patriotic power ballads, the government finds the idea of having an army to be rather distasteful, and cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive. Mediobogdum's national animal is the Gyr Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Violetism.
Mediobogdum is ranked 116,805th in the world and 846th in the West Pacific for Most Stationary, with 320.06353127032 days.
