The Borderlands of DeadMemes is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Quinn with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.042 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 large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of CapybaraIsla. The average income tax rate is 66.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The DeadMemesian economy, worth 420 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 fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 69,599 Dabloons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Murderers are immune to arrest while attending their victims' funerals, rugby players that knock each other over always stop to make sure the other fellow is okay, books are so highly regarded in DeadMemes that libraries are often revered as holy shrines, and people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy. 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, and its national religion is Triple-Baka.

DeadMemes is ranked 274,930^th in the world and 15,138^th in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 23,106.9 Standard Monetary Units.
