The Las Vegas Utopia of The MGM Grand is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Kirk Kerorian with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, public floggings, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 15.244 billion MGM Grandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Las Vegas. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.3%.

The frighteningly efficient MGM Grandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,022 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 198,291 dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,061,254 per year while the poor average 19,401, a ratio of 54.7 to 1.

Putting a mustache on a banknote is considered defacing a national monument, the Coast Guard is pioneering a quixotic program to train fish, in a fit of passion Kirk Kerorian has shredded thirty years' worth of petitions, and a shout of "stop in the name of the law!" is more of a request than an order. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The MGM Grand's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Las Vegas.

The MGM Grand is ranked 293,132^nd in the world and 7^th in MGM Resorts International for Lowest Crime Rates, with 4.35 law-abiding acts per hour.
