The Oriental Empire of Merlovich is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, infamous sell-swords, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 746 million Merlovichans 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, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tousunai. The average income tax rate is 54.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Merlovichian economy, worth 94.0 trillion Tousunai Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 125,980 Tousunai Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.
The diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room, Merlovich is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, many friends and relatives of Leader have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, and criminals are put to death while cuddling their favourite teddy bear. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Merlovich's national animal is the Red Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Merlovich is ranked 153,133rd in the world and 7,013th in The East Pacific for Most Extreme, scoring 6.32 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
