Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Michinari is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 742 million Michinarians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gao City. The average income tax rate is 51.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Michinarian economy, worth 53.8 trillion Michi Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Soda Sales. Average income is 72,519 Michi Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government is proud to report that ten percent of all tax revenue goes to funding suspected terrorist organizations, drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, and running away is an essential part of the elite forces' hand-to-hand training. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Michinari's national animal is the Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Michinari is ranked 159,003^rd in the world and 6,996^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 136.05 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
