The Transylvanian Dictatorship of Megalovania is a massive, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.307 billion Megalovanians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Megalo Cluj-Napoca. The average income tax rate is 58.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Megalovanian economy, worth 156 trillion Knifeses a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,432 Knifeses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Garden stores are not allowed to sell water butts, hunters often become the hunted, the nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned, and marketing departments of corporate giants compete to sponsor little league teams. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Megalovania's national animal is the Monsters, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Megalovania is ranked 84,023^rd in the world and 30^th in Hive for Most Patriotic, with 16.98 flags saluted per person per day.
