The National State of Mesoslavia is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its public floggings, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 587 million Mesoslavs 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 large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of San Francisco Franco. The average income tax rate is 66.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Mesoslavian economy, worth 44.2 trillion pesetas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,246 pesetas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations, major boxing matches are held in government buildings, being dead no longer has any benefits, and government reports are now used to teach toddlers to read. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mesoslavia's national animal is the Falangist Tung Tung Tung Sahur, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mesoslavia is ranked 17,783^rd in the world and 75^th in The Frontier Sea for Nicest Citizens, with 23.8 average smiles per day.
