The State of Mirre

“Might Certainly Makes Right”

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

The State of Mirre is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Governor with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 10.336 billion Mirreans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.2%.

The thriving Mirrean economy, worth 725 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 70,158 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 238,859 per year while the poor average 15,183, a ratio of 15.7 to 1.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, no one believes anything until it has been strenuously tested and peer-reviewed, Mirre has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Mirre in an international press conference. Crime is moderate. Mirre's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Mirre is ranked 151,678^th in the world and 2^nd in Houston for Most Corrupt Governments, with 3.24 kickbacks per hour.
