The Empire of Meeres is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Huangshah Noach I with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 5.611 billion Meeresians 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 medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hsianos. The average income tax rate is 42.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Meeresian economy, worth 394 trillion Reens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 70,246 Reens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Meeres has designated Hsianos as its capital city, Huangshah Noach I has just been declared ruler of Meeres in an international press conference, a major religion has been named as Meeres's national religion, and all statues and paintings of dogs are being destroyed to avoid offending cat-lovers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Meeres's national animal is the Tiger, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Meeres is ranked 103,810^th in the world and 13^th in Grand Imperium of a Thousand Realms for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 837.74 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
