The Benevolent Dictatorship of Migs is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Governor-General Mitheel with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.861 billion Migsians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Migs City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Migsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,016 trillion Miges a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 263,367 Miges, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 856,692 per year while the poor average 61,001, a ratio of 14.0 to 1.

Foreign nations often blame poverty and terrorism on Migsian selfishness, the government denies that it has an agency overseeing plausible deniability of black-ops agencies, rolling boulders up hills is the national sport, and the nation's museums are real penny-pinchers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Migs's national animal is the Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Migs is ranked 159,330^th in the world and 250^th in the Outback for Largest Populations, with 3.86 billion capita.
