The Dictatorship of Mikennsteria is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Little Sister with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, aversion to nipples, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.483 billion Mikennsterians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City-0001. The average income tax rate is 78.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Mikennsterian economy, worth 531 trillion rens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 152,606 rens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The government's religious works are headed by a New Age guru, radio stations offer prizes to callers who can guess this month's most endangered species, the fines for getting caught with the wrong recipe book can force Mikennsterians into bankruptcy, and foreign governments regularly accuse the Mikennsterian military of war crimes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mikennsteria's national animal is the horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Mikennsteria is ranked 87,149^th in the world and 335^th in Europeia for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 2,124.04 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
