The Dictatorship of MDRunie is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by General MDR with an iron fist, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, free-roaming dinosaurs, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 36.242 billion MDRunieans 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 tiny, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mpolis. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient MDRuniean economy, worth an astonishing 25,802 trillion Mcones a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is a breathtaking 711,962 Mcones, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,040,230 per year while the poor average 107,050, a ratio of 28.4 to 1.

Politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads, government officials across MDRunie are being "encouraged" to adopt HOBOES to set an example for the populace, every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver, and millions of Mcones have been thrown into a project to find the cure for Mad HOBO Disease. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. MDRunie's national animal is the HOBO, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Howly cow.

MDRunie is ranked 77th in the world and 2nd in Osiris for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 1,837.94 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
