The People's Republic of Mungaermen is a huge, genial nation, ruled by The Mungaer Isaac II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 787 million Ancient Romans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Principolis City. The average income tax rate is 40.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Mungaermenian economy, worth 74.4 trillion Roman Slaves a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,587 Roman Slaves, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Religious bigotry and a fear of outsiders have replaced religious studies in schools, churches frequently hold public 'contraception burnings', male friends are often accompanied by a female relative in order to prove their 'straightness', and libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mungaermen's national animal is the Orangutan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mungaermen is ranked 56,966^th in the world and 45^th in Astoria for Most Corrupt Governments, with 32.37 kickbacks per hour.
