The Republic of Mul is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Naomi Watts with a fair hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, daily referendums, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.009 billion Mulians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mulholland. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mulian economy, worth 523 trillion Mulas a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 174,014 Mulas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government seizes private property for the 'good of the people', the once prosperous capital is in utter decline, science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, and rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mul's national animal is the Mule, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mul is ranked 253,176^th in the world and 940^th in Talonia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.24 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
