The Protector Yenisei of Messagebox is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Yenisei with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, prohibition of alcohol, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.944 billion Yeniseis love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of My Heart. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Messageboxian economy, worth a remarkable 1,050 trillion Yeniseis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 117,398 Yeniseis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Flight attendants rip down curtains with revolutionary fervor, bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, politicians are forced to wear portable lie detectors at all times, and citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Messagebox's national animal is the Yenisei, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Yenisei.

Messagebox is ranked 46,858th in the world and 370th in the Rejected Realms for Highest Average Incomes, with 117,398.06 Standard Monetary Units.
