The Holy Empire of Muad-Dib is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Leto II Atreides with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.405 billion Fremen love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arrakis. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Fremen economy, worth a remarkable 2,196 trillion Melanges a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 296,570 Melanges, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tombstones are ten feet high to accommodate the names of inhabitants, power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky, a sudden shout of "surprise!" does not herald a party for teachers, and the constant playing of Merry Birthday on Fremen radio has led to calls for the song to be classified as a crime against humanity. Crime is totally unknown. Muad-Dib's national animal is the Shai-Hulud, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The God Emperor.

Muad-Dib is ranked 36,240th in the world and 254th in the West Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,246.42445923228 days.
