The Republic of Musnople is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, state-planned economy, and soft-spoken computers. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 1.785 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 35.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Musnoplean economy, worth 276 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 154,747 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's no representation without taxation, Harry Potter conventions are closely watched by the government for any signs of 'dueling', Leader's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies, and senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour. Crime is totally unknown. Musnople's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Musnople is ranked 133,084^th in the world and 5,584^th in Lazarus for Safest, scoring 67.14 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
