The Moral Marauders of Melon ia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Executive Angela with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.184 billion Melonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Angelsie Center. The average income tax rate is 94.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Melon ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,338 trillion Melons a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,739 Melons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is universally agreed that the first 31 issues are the only ones with humor and charm (Melon ia has found 2 easter eggs), tech-mad citizens think that the laser-powered bread-slicer uPhone App is the coolest thing since sliced bread, hipster cyclists declare that "metal is dead", and old warplanes and tanks that break down can't be repaired since no one makes the parts anymore. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Melon ia's national animal is the Narwhal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is The Church of the Most High Narwhal.

Melon ia is ranked 8,303rd in the world and 1st in Region Name for Highest Food Quality, scoring 173.39 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
