The Most Serene Republic of Meso Harenae is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, keen interest in outer space, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The cynical population of 423 million Meso Harenaeans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arrakis. The average income tax rate is 57.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Meso Harenaean economy, worth 42.1 trillion Spiceses a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 99,534 Spiceses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A widely accepted trade policy is "tit-for-tat", cops in Arrakis spend much of their time napping on a park bench next to Embassy Row, the nation's smallest Sand Wormball teams trade draft picks for a free lunch, and the importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Meso Harenae's national animal is the Sand Worm, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Meso Harenae is ranked 12,982^nd in the world and 30^th in United Kingdom for Most Secular, with 89.14 Atheism Rate.
