The Republic of Mist Haven is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by President Gauge Sullens with an even hand, and notable for its ritual sacrifices, parental licensing program, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, devout population of 5.286 billion Mist Havenians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elioria. The average income tax rate is 70.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Mist Havenian economy, worth 388 trillion Ørens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,408 Ørens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Hot dogs have been renamed lukewarm pigs, people caught mistreating Mist Haven's flag generally wind up in a great deal of pain, badminton was recently banned due to 'unacceptable violence' inherent to the game, and the government prefers to kill off its enemies by peaceful means. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mist Haven's national animal is the Ticaducas, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Mist Haven is ranked 326,058^th in the world and 354^th in Christians for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -14.21 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
