The State of Mesoamericana is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, cynical population of 8.201 billion Mesoamericanans are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 10.8%.

The strong Mesoamericanan economy, worth 478 trillion betales a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 58,306 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, organ donation is compulsory, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and Mesoamericana has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mesoamericana's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Mesoamericana is ranked 184,012^th in the world and 2^nd in Two Letter for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.1 law-abiding acts per hour.
