The Empire of Meme Sauce is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 415 million Memes are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.

The thriving Sauce economy, worth 29.3 trillion Moonis a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 70,557 Moonis, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 249,749 per year while the poor average 14,392, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Military spending recently hit a new high, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and Harry Potter books are banned. Crime is moderate. Meme Sauce's national animal is the Mr Krabs, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Meme Sauce is ranked 183,666^th in the world and 7,519^th in the South Pacific for Largest Retail Industry, scoring -2.83 on the Shrinkwrap Consignment Productivity Index.
