The Federal Republic of Medinal is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Hao Anon with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 1.441 billion Medinalians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Medis. The average income tax rate is 58.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Medinalian economy, worth 35.3 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 24,470 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Invasive species are hunted by the gendarmerie, the government is proud to report that ten percent of all tax revenue goes to funding suspected terrorist organizations, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, and all statues and paintings of dogs are being destroyed to avoid offending cat-lovers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Medinal's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Medinal is ranked 316,763^rd in the world and 11^th in Project for Highest Average Incomes, with 24,470.29 Standard Monetary Units.
