The Grand Empire of the Species of Mangoville is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Emperor-King Ducky with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 6.448 billion Mangovilleans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mangoville city or Sesaurius. The average income tax rate is 60.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mangovillian economy, worth a remarkable 1,399 trillion Mangoes 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 black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. 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 217,089 Mangoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, the Foreign Ministry thinks an eye for an eye is a blindingly good idea, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, and citizens simply have to point a weapon at a government official to get what they want. Crime is totally unknown. Mangoville's national animal is the T rex, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Mango-Catholism.

Mangoville is ranked 37,614^th in the world and 125^th in Conch Kingdom for Lowest Crime Rates, with 78.87 law-abiding acts per hour.
