The Socialist People's Republic of Myhomecountry is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by no one with an iron fist, and notable for its feral children, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 7.831 billion Myhomecountryians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Capital. The average income tax rate is 70.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Myhomecountryian economy, worth a remarkable 1,740 trillion Papers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Retail, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 222,320 Papers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Stealing from a clothesline is a serious offence, No one's recent "I have a dream that we will fight them by raking muck on the beaches" speech seems a little derivative to many, the use of martial arts is banned, and cities are engulfed by smog. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Myhomecountry's national animal is the Tick, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.

Myhomecountry is ranked 15,059^th in the world and 217^th in the South Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 121.48 kickbacks per hour.
