The Republic of Morgin is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Nomi with an even hand, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, public floggings, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed population of 1.452 billion morgins are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Starria. The average income tax rate is 29.8%.

The strong morgin economy, worth 89.3 trillion kints a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,515 kints, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Third party candidates are now gaining some representation in Parliament, the Morgin Intelligence Agency has put 'Project Quantum Refrigerator' on hold indefinitely, politicians who vacation in East Lebatuck lose their jobs upon their return, and manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Morgin's national animal is the rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Poteto.

Morgin is ranked 108,816th in the world and 503rd in the Outback for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 772 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
