The Empire of Millwellbee Inc is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Edwin III with an iron fist, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, anti-smoking policies, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.317 billion Millwellbee Incians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 65.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Millwellbee Incian economy, worth a remarkable 1,368 trillion coupons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 317,005 coupons, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,252,422 per year while the poor average 54,323, a ratio of 23.1 to 1.

A rebrand a day keeps the debt collectors away, formerly fertile fields are being leached dry of nutrients by intensive farming, triple black diamond is the only ski difficulty, and corporations continue to displace native peoples off their land. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Millwellbee Inc's national animal is the shopping cart, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Millwellbee Inc is ranked 8,268^th in the world and 2^nd in Aspen for Largest Black Market, with 748 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
