The Holy Empire of Muad-Dib is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Leto II Atreides with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, anti-smoking policies, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.59 billion Fremen 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 enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arrakis. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Fremen economy, worth a remarkable 2,281 trillion Melanges a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 300,554 Melanges, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bike rage is all the rage, people faint regularly as they get stuck with compulsory vaccinations, Maxtopian villagers starve by the time Fremen officials even file the appropriate paperwork needed to help them, and the comic book series 'Leto II Atreides and the Villainous Corporate Cronies' is a best-seller. Crime is totally unknown. Muad-Dib's national animal is the Shai-Hulud, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The God Emperor.

Muad-Dib is ranked 1,072^nd in the world and 13^th in the West Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 5,060.43 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
