The Dominion of Melenavenia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Dahlia DuPont with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.975 billion Melenavenians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District of Patricia. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Melenavenian economy, worth 401 trillion MDS a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 134,985 MDS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, the general public only knows their favorite politician's first name, many marriages go virtually unconsummated, and lawyers spend as much time preparing their make-up as they do their briefs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Melenavenia's national animal is the polar bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Melenavenia is ranked 236,032^nd in the world and 211^th in Refugia for Fattest Citizens, with 3.61 Obesity Rate.
