The Dictatorship of Mistken is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Mist with an iron fist, and notable for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.123 billion Cuties 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 juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District of Cuties. The average income tax rate is 81.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Cute economy, worth 171 trillion Cuteness Bars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 80,955 Cuteness Bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

CSI Forest is this year's hit new crime show, the government guarantees extra-soft tissues to fire-snorting elephants, train stations can be 'armful places, and 50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mistken's national animal is the Red Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cuteness.

Mistken is ranked 258,960^th in the world and 116^th in Karma for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 1.75 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
