The Heteregality of Mushcap is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Paceman with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 28.148 billion Shroomans 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 medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fungorum. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Shrooman economy, worth a remarkable 6,612 trillion Sh'uums a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 234,907 Sh'uums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fistfighting vigilantes tend to suffer a lot of gunshot wounds, the government subsidizes those who produce the worst results, sweat stains are proof of political acumen, and army rations are served on silver platters. Crime is totally unknown. Mushcap's national animal is the Mushroom cow, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Mushcap is ranked 8,329^th in the world and 3^rd in Sonnel for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 6,241.39 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
