The Armed and Fabulous of Mademoiselle Myriade is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.972 billion Mademoiselle Myriadeans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 58.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Mademoiselle Myriadean economy, worth 57.0 trillion franc rouges 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Trout Farming. 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 11,470 franc rouges, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has solemnly sworn not to look up other nations' internet browsing history if the favor is returned, citizens are remarkably well involved in the political process, cars are banned, and euthanasia is legal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mademoiselle Myriade's national animal is the guillotine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mademoiselle Myriade is ranked 99,921st in the world and 947th in the West Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 35.91 quips per hour.
