The Dominion of Midgarn is a titanic, safe nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion and restrictive gun laws. The democratic population of 10.215 billion Midgarnians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 22.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Midgarnian economy, worth 394 trillion Florens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Automobile Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 38,591 Florens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Artists are pillars of society, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, and the government is attempting to impose a new national language on the public. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Midgarn's national animal is the Swan.

Midgarn is ranked 193,807^th in the world and 15^th in Alvion for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 22.25 Effective Tax Rate.
