The Grand Duchy of 46566 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Lamont Cranston with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 43.95 billion Midgaris have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandra. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Midgari economy, worth an astonishing 23,793 trillion Ducats a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is a breathtaking 541,385 Ducats, with the richest citizens earning 8.0 times as much as the poorest.

Major archaeological findings are frequently bulldozed to make way for new buildings, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, 46566 isn't what it used to be, and government ministers are regularly seen in the streets confessing their sins and hammering missiles into plow-shares. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. 46566's national animal is the Spiteful Crow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is National Orthodoxy.

46566 is ranked 332,125th in the world and 50th in Mitteleuropa for Least Corrupt Governments, with 0.99 percentage of bribes refused.
