The Suffering of Little Misfortune is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Little Misfortune with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 9.338 billion Little Misfortuneans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fortuna. The average income tax rate is 44.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Little Misfortunean economy, worth 882 trillion marshmallows a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 94,475 marshmallows, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

It can be a real jungle in a modern courtroom, court verdicts are predictable to within a hundredth of a percentage point, children often explain to their parents that the Mega Ultimate Sword Fist was worth the thousand-marshmallow charge on their phone bill, and teenagers sit around on their butts all day. Crime is totally unknown. Little Misfortune's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Violetism.

Little Misfortune is ranked 95,018^th in the world and 1,022^nd in Ambition for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,254.53 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
