The Federation of Mushet is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Mush with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful population of 35.766 billion Mushis hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mortal Valley. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Mushi economy, worth an astonishing 13,197 trillion Mushi Notes a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 368,989 Mushi Notes, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.

A law degree is required before telling people not to drink and drive, diplomats agree to the terms and conditions of peace treaties without reading them, citizens invest their excess cash in mattresses, and kindhearted Mushis generously pay taxes for citizens of other countries. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Mushet's national animal is the Condor, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Mushet is ranked 15,202^nd in the world and 3^rd in North America for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 5,448.49 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
