The District of Michael Christopher is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Liard with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 34.523 billion Crossans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Spirituality, although Welfare and Industry are also considered important, while Social Policy and Law & Order receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The thriving Michael Christopherian economy, worth a remarkable 1,625 trillion districtas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Pizza Delivery, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 47,085 districtas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 134,615 per year while the poor average 13,118, a ratio of 10.3 to 1.

A major religion has been named as Michael Christopher's national religion, the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists, the government has implemented minimum wage laws, and people with political aspirations study how to make balloon animals. Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Michael Christopher's national animal is the trout, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Michael Christopher is ranked 135,668^th in the world and 186^th in State for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
