The Holy Empire of Moronistan is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Reverend Daft with an even hand, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, avowedly heterosexual populace, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 21.554 billion Morons are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, moralistic, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is dominated by the Department of Spirituality, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Healthcare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Upid. The average income tax rate is 82.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Moronic economy, worth 321 trillion Dimwits a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Basket Weaving industry. Average income is 14,928 Dimwits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Men who wear pink are seen as dangerously unmanly, criminals are really screwed, printing ink yields Cretinism's biggest return on investment, and greenhouses are regularly raided by the police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Moronistan's national animal is the air-headed bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cretinism.

Moronistan is ranked 6,484th in the world and 1st in Ruritania for Most Stationary, with 2,890.12771976152 days.
