The Holy Empire of Slimefolk is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Empress Metchana Splotch with a fair hand, and remarkable for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.964 billion Slimefolks enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Splotch. The average income tax rate is 79.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Slimefolkian economy, worth 528 trillion Slimivars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 133,338 Slimivars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

A rusted hulk in Splotch harbour has been voted the worst eyesore in Eientei Gensokyo, skin-tone prom dresses are more unpopular than ever, the Slimefolkian Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, and prisoners can't do number twos without their "toilet buddy" present. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Slimefolk's national animal is the Slime, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Slimican.

Slimefolk is ranked 14,689^th in the world and 26^th in Eientei Gensokyo for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,251.67 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
