The Panorama of Mesdag is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by MrMesdag with an iron fist, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, free-roaming dinosaurs, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 36.331 billion Mesdagians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of MesdagCity. The average income tax rate is 94.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Mesdagian economy, worth a remarkable 7,310 trillion Antilliaanse guldens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, Book Publishing, and Gambling. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 201,212 Antilliaanse guldens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Children's TV shows are having a gay old time, being MrMesdag has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, the government has enacted freedom of information, and school plays were recently banned due to concerns of child endangerment. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mesdag's national animal is the leeuw, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Atheism.

Mesdag is ranked 1,471st in the world and 53rd in Nederland for Most Stationary, with 4,302.7055796 days.
