The Commonwealth of Myran is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Commonwealth Director-President with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.092 billion Myrans 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 large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cor Myran. The average income tax rate is 79.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Myran economy, worth 230 trillion Myroes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,073 Myroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters, the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, and major boxing matches are held in government buildings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Myran's national animal is the Snowy Owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Humanism.

Myran is ranked 220,122^nd in the world and 1,093^rd in the Plains of Perdition for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 398 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
