The Pink Holy Lucky Christmas of Mesothallania is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Santa Claus with an iron fist, and renowned for its feral children, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 4.106 billion Msothallanians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The average income tax rate is 75.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Msothallanian economy, worth 274 trillion Candy Cane Gold Bars a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,900 Candy Cane Gold Bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Advert breaks are played at lower volumes to make them easier to ignore, a giant 'No Entry' sign is being erected at the borders of Mesothallania, holidaymakers sleep curled up on the floor as hotel beds are replaced with oversized bookcases, and charity fundraisers often resemble minstrel shows. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mesothallania's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Athyism.

Mesothallania is ranked 80,078^th in the world and 44^th in Africa for Most Corrupt Governments, with 20.66 kickbacks per hour.
