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 sprawling nuclear power plants, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.585 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 2,276 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 300,192 Melanges, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries, Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, board shorts have replaced board rooms, and stuttering trypanophobes are doomed never to marry. 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 290,420^th in the world and 3,745^th in the West Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -29.85 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
