The Holy Empire of Menjapahit is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 371 million Menjapahitians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 46.8%.

The very strong Menjapahitian economy, worth 25.0 trillion menjabucks a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 67,459 menjabucks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 197,939 per year while the poor average 18,123, a ratio of 10.9 to 1.

Disadvantaged youths often commit felonies to enhance their educational prospects, museums stand half-empty as all foreign exhibits are returned to their countries of origin, popular websites like NationStates are blocked for "national security", and the government is spending billions of taxpayer menjabucks to support "struggling" industries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Menjapahit's national animal is the rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Menjapahit is ranked 28,800th in the world and 3rd in New Lusteria for Safest, scoring 109.75 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
