The Heteregality of Mushcap is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by King Paceman with a fair hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 28.229 billion Shroomans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fungorum. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Shrooman economy, worth a remarkable 6,634 trillion Sh'uums a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 235,037 Sh'uums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

CEOs and corporate executives are frequently found striking for better stock options, elderly tribespeople die in bed surrounded by loved ones and linguists, skateboarding is considered a form of diplomacy, and residents are readily ratting out rats in restaurants. Crime is totally unknown. Mushcap's national animal is the Mushroom cow, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Mushcap is ranked 20,812^th in the world and 3^rd in Sonnel for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 77.29 Effective Tax Rate.
