The Cow Worshippers of Moogen is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by CowPope with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.619 billion Moogenians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Washacow C. The average income tax rate is 92.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Moogenian economy, worth 434 trillion Doubloons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is an impressive 120,172 Doubloons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Soldiers find that home gadgets and power tools are more effective as improvised weapons than the guns they've been issued, they unpaved paradise and tore up a parking lot (ooh, bop bop bop), the nation's diplomats shake hands with those whose hands are drenched in the blood of innocents, and the seats at the back of the parliament are reserved for indigenous ministers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Moogen's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cowslam.

Moogen is ranked 283,122^nd in the world and 23^rd in The Amaranthine Isles for Fattest Citizens, with 6.06 Obesity Rate.
