The Kingdom of Meepstan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by King Meepus with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 2.205 billion Meepstanians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meepingrad. The average income tax rate is 81.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Meepstanian economy, worth 291 trillion Francs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 132,022 Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Everyone wants to be on the guest list for diplomatic parties, the government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure, entomologists flock to Meepingrad for its remarkable gadfly population, and sweat stains are proof of political acumen. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Meepstan's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Meepstanian Orthodoxy.

Meepstan is ranked 134,503^rd in the world and 7,247^th in Osiris for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,901.06 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
