The Protectorate of Muggkaahn is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory vegetarianism, fear of technology, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 257 million Pyisuur are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — prioritizes Administration, although Spirituality, Environment, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Defense receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pond of a Thousand Droplets. The average income tax rate is 83.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Pyisuur economy, worth 5.61 trillion coiled-twigs 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 Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 21,818 coiled-twigs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding", bins outnumber trees in city parks, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, and all marriages are arranged by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Muggkaahn's national animal is the water strider, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Muggkaahn is ranked 292,818^th in the world and 192^nd in Karma for Most Developed, scoring 50.63 on the Human Development Index.
