Mymis

The People's Republic of Mymis is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service and smutty television. The compassionate, cynical population of 14 million Myms are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 38.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Mymisian economy, worth 612 billion Antlers a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,774 Antlers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Snap elections are called over every minor impasse, fruit pickers with degrees in elk psychology are a common sight, Max Barry is this year's Miss Mymis, and throwing garbage out of your house's front window makes it legally someone else's problem. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mymis's national animal is the elk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mymis is ranked 66,052nd in the world and 1st in Vaagot Land for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,329.54 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
