The Federation of Miryvska is a fledgling, safe nation, notable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 6 million Miryvskans 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 62.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The fragile Miryvskan economy, worth 120 billion florins 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. 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 20,150 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and finders keepers is the law of the land. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Miryvska's national animal is the sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Miryvska is ranked 102,030^th in the world and 40^th in womp for Nicest Citizens, with 14.64 average smiles per day.
