The Kingdom of Merconitonitopia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Montebad II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, ubiquitous missile silos, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 23.457 billion Onitonites are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Spirituality, Environment, and Healthcare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bahmedag. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Onitonite economy, worth an astonishing 12,946 trillion virtues a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 551,921 virtues, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bigtopian relations have become a minefield, fair-weather fans talk during plays while die-hard theatre enthusiasts stay at home, women wearing male lounge-wear are quizzed for hours by mental health practitioners, and the question of 'what is King Montebad II's favorite color?' has been given a priority rating of burnt-orange. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Merconitonitopia's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Mandaeism.

Merconitonitopia is ranked 286,540th in the world and 6,330th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -1209.68 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
