The D'deridex-Class WarBird of LegMiner11 is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Jirura with an iron fist, and remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol, infamous sell-swords, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.14 billion Romulans 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Xikun. The average income tax rate is 34.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient LegMiner11ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,184 trillion Tal Shiars 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. 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 an amazing 268,325 Tal Shiars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Rumor has it that Jirura has won three lotteries in a row, the immigration office has an express line for people bringing cash in briefcases, builders across LegMiner11 are blocked up with orders for new public loos, and EULAs remind customers that "Private Mode" is a browser setting rather than a promise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. LegMiner11's national animal is the Cloaking Device, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Mnhei'sahe and Lyrrveoth.

LegMiner11 is ranked 56,900th in the world and 244th in Mikes Hope for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,969.85 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
