The Dominion of Mirpak of Jovilor is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Council of Worlds with an even hand, and notable for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 16.921 billion Mirpakians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ionia. The average income tax rate is 91.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Mirpakian economy, worth a remarkable 2,759 trillion Chips a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 163,089 Chips, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Air Jovilor is rumored to receive more government funding than the Mirpakian Air Force, conspiracy theorists allege Ionia's new subway map resembles Satanic symbols, physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques, and the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jovilor's national animal is the Tribble, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.
Jovilor is ranked 127,711th in the world and 27th in The Galactics Union for Most Stationary, with 264.19296980528 days.
