The Federal Republic of Medetas is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Sir Evert Gray with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 9.291 billion Medetians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Administration also on the agenda, while Defense receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neu Osprant. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Medetian economy, worth a remarkable 1,432 trillion notes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 154,146 notes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The media seems excessively interested in what Sir Evert Gray is wearing this season, citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, there's nothing special about Sir Evert Gray, and weekends are spent tilting at windmills. Crime is totally unknown. Medetas's national animal is the loon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Medetas is ranked 3,274^th in the world and 67^th in 10000 Islands for Most Beautiful Environments, with 2,912.88 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
