The Benevolent dictatorship of Myness is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by The Dominus with an iron fist, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and digital currency. The compassionate, cynical population of 13.728 billion Mynessians 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, corrupt, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mypolis. The average income tax rate is 92.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mynessic economy, worth a remarkable 1,401 trillion mynors a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 102,107 mynors, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Schoolchildren on field trips are asked what torture means to them, sweat stains are proof of political acumen, science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, and museum visitors often bring lemons and black lights. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Myness's national animal is the calamander, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Myness is ranked 9,532^nd in the world and 249^th in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 91.04 on the Human Development Index.
