The États-Unis of Mesozoique is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Enzo Semedo with a fair hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.025 billion Mésozoïcains enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Malkington. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient mésozoïcain economy, worth 289 trillion dollar mésozoïcains a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 143,154 dollar mésozoïcains, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Stale 'yo mamma' insults have been replaced by 'your maternal DNA' insults, cheese has become the new icon of political dissent, wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", and shivering secretaries type letters under torrential downpours in open-roof offices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mesozoique's national animal is the pygargue vocifer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Mesozoique is ranked 218,875th in the world and 131st in Africa for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -3.54 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
