The Federal Republic of Mytanija is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Ana Mecava-Catic with a fair hand, and notable for its avant-garde cinema, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.768 billion Mytanars 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Esca. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Mytanar economy, worth 359 trillion coruns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 33,361 coruns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, sales of pregnancy testing kits are booming, and Ana Mecava-Catic has no checks and balances after the upper house was abolished. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mytanija's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mytanija is ranked 192,005^th in the world and 53^rd in Rushmore for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2.28 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
