The Republic of Musnople is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, parental licensing program, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 1.687 billion Musnopleans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lezhek. The average income tax rate is 33.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Musnoplean economy, worth 263 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 156,332 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

War memorials have been modified to include hammocks for napping, running away is an essential part of the elite forces' hand-to-hand training, pandemics are over and done with by the time it takes to pass the nation's stringent border security, and Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Lezhek to enjoy their national art. Crime is totally unknown. Musnople's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Musnople is ranked 54,012^th in the world and 2,987^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 71 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
