The Empire of Meglomania is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Simon The Magnificent with an iron fist, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 2.029 billion Meglomanians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meglomania City. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Meglomanian economy, worth 148 trillion Vouchers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 73,300 Vouchers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, the government keeps introducing new foreign species to combat the previous ones it has introduced, national park visitors are reporting a rash of poison ivy sightings, and birth rates have hit an all-time low. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Meglomania's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Judaism.

Meglomania is ranked 27,704^th in the world and 480^th in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 40.21 flags saluted per person per day.
