The Republic of Mul is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Naomi Watts with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.045 billion Mulians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mulholland. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mulian economy, worth 530 trillion Mulas a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 174,131 Mulas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, and athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mul's national animal is the Mule, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mul is ranked 287,409^th in the world and 413^th in Talonia for Largest Black Market, with 47.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
