The |AXM| Novus Merca'j Factory of Mellywood is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Vanesa with an iron fist, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 11.954 billion Mellywoodians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 278,982 diesels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mellywood's national animal is the flying rat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Mellywood.
