The Democratic Republic of MLoP is a mammoth, cultured nation, renowned for its anti-smoking policies, parental licensing program, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 5.114 billion MLoPians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 85.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse MLoPian economy, worth 468 trillion Stars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is 91,535 Stars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, school football matches are usually five-a-side, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', and weathermen are being arrested for attempting to read the future. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MLoP's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

MLoP is ranked 44,813^th in the world and 1^st in NSLeft for Most Cultured, scoring 73 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
