The State of Meydenbauer is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 40.909 billion Meydenbauerians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, liberal government is dominated by the Department of Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.4%.

The thriving Meydenbauerian economy, worth a remarkable 1,898 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Gambling, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 46,418 betales, with the richest citizens earning 8.7 times as much as the poorest.

Meydenbauer has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, the government is slowly introducing social welfare programs, the Governor has just been declared ruler of Meydenbauer in an international press conference, and discarded pennies litter the streets. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Meydenbauer's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Meydenbauer is ranked 93,304^th in the world and 2^nd in Seattle for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,560.56 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
