The Borderlands of DeadMemes is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.096 billion DeadMemesians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of CapybaraIsla. The average income tax rate is 42.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The DeadMemesian economy, worth 64.3 trillion Dabloons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 58,649 Dabloons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign nations kill migratory animals at random in the hope that DeadMemes will pay them to stop, biological warfare is used to solve small disagreements, Leader has just been declared ruler of DeadMemes in an international press conference, and genetic research is temporarily tied up in government red tape. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DeadMemes's national animal is the Capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

DeadMemes is ranked 56,214^th in the world and 1,232^nd in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 3,904.4 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
