The Hikûmeta Gel of Mehrabad is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Birêvebir Nas Qazi Mohammad with an iron fist, and renowned for its hatred of cheese, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 21.074 billion Mehrabadis are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Piranshahr. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Mehrabadi economy, worth a remarkable 4,459 trillion Dinars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Basket Weaving industry. Average income is an amazing 211,589 Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Black tea is only available on the black market, aides are afraid to ask if Birêvebir Nas Qazi Mohammad wants a cup of tea or coffee, employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams, and children in school learn that marriage and slavery go hand in hand. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mehrabad's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Yazdânism.

Mehrabad is ranked 1,843^rd in the world and 7^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Corrupt Governments, with 364.78 kickbacks per hour.
